We had a couple of hours to kill before boarding the river cruise, so … of course … we went for a walk around Nuremberg old city. All the stores were closed because it is Easter Monday, but there was a huge market in the square by the Beautiful Fountain, so we checked it out and even bought a few small items. We had a gelato too. It seemed the least we could do. And of course, we enjoyed the architecture, as we have done every other day here.

Spring is well underway here, and the magnolia trees are in full bloom.

The Grand Hotel had “bunny” art in the windows. No idea if these are a permanent installation, or a temporary exhibit to celebrate Easter. Maybe we’ll find out on our next visit.

I’ll leave you with a picture of a monument (apparently celebrating the end of the Napoleonic Wars) visible from the cruise ship. More to follow.
