Rothenburg ob der Tauber
This weekend, I am basing myself in Nuremberg to check out a couple of towns along the famed Romantic Road. And the first of these towns is Rothenburg ob der Tauber.
Narbonne

Toulouse
Even with the slightly chilly winds in March, it was hard not to fall in love with Toulouse. Walking through its street was like journeying back into the medieval era.
