Erbach (Odelwald) & Michelstadt (2 Nov 2008)



















Trip to Odenwaldkreis. The ride was interesting as the train zoomed pastures and forests. Plenty of orange/yellow baums (reminder that Winter is coming real soon).

Erbach, also know as Elfenbeinstadt (Elfen(Ivory) coz it comes from Elefant, naturally). I visited the 2 main attractions: Schloss Erbach (Castle of the Counts) and the Deutsches Elfenbeinmuseum...
Chanced upon a large Flohmarkt, wow, this was huge, with hundreds of cars/wagons displaying all the fanciful stuff. Too bad nothing caught my eye, maybe I wasn't in the mood to spot antiques.
Took a Busfahrt to Michelstadt, but couldn't find the town map, so only walked thru the town garden. Will go there again for their Weihnachtmarkt!!! HoHoHo...
