Weimar Weekend
Since it's my last weekend here in Leipzig, we decided to drag our lazy butts out of the house, and take the train somewhere for a short trip. Hamburg, Munich, Stuggart were a little too far away for a short 2 day trip. Does Weimar sound familiar? Yeah, that's the place where the democratic Weimar Republic was established after WWI. It was awarded the coveted title of "european city of culture" in 1999. Many germans make a 'pilgrimage' to Weimar to see several significant historical buildings, namely Goethehaus, Schillerhaus and several museums. We weren't too interested in Goethe's furniture and wallpaper. But I suppose we *might* just pay to visit Sir Stamford Raffles quarters or something right?
