  First order of business in Regensburg. Second order of business. Blauer Turm (Blue Tower). Aside from low door, gorgeous modern rooms. Sister hotel of Munchner Hof where we stayed the next night with ExperiencePlus. When they say 'sister hotel is "steps" down the street' they do mean 20 feet down the street, not a hike away.

  Very nice rooms! Bier in front of the cathedral (tho Sue's 'bier' is a beer/lemonade mix - a Rabler) Famous "stone bridge", the oldest bridge in Germany, built in the 12th century. Having a bridge made the city a major trade route!

  Bridge work from above. They numbered the rocks while jack-hammering them out, so they can put them back in the right spots? Next day, regular room now at the Munchner Hof Relief of town, with stone bridge leading to the cathedral
