Naked Sauna Anyone?? ... NOT!

Spent the better part of the day at the Caracalla Therme, a gigantic spa and baths in Baden Baden, Germany. It was beyond relaxing and so much fun. The girls were all set to try the nude sauna and baths upstairs but got up there only to find out that it was co-ed ... No thank you!!  Shocked, they returned to join us in the large massage pool outdoors and we passed a few laps in the lazy river current pool before taking off to shower up.
A Few of the Outdoor Pools and the Lazy River
Some of the Indoor Pools
We then made our way to Hugelsheim, where I lived for a year, many moons ago. We visited my old house and had a great German meal of schnitzel at the Gruner Baum, a restaurant that my family and friends frequented way back when.  Delicious!! 
 
Home again to do laundry and have some great tarte au pomme, au rhubarbe, et a l'abricot, as well as some fantastic flammkuchen, which we bought from a local beer garten to support a ski team from Riquewihr. So cool!
Tarte Flambee, also known in German as Flammkuchen.
But not quite as much so as the sisterhood...
