rudesheimNear Wiesbaden and Mainz. Pick up your cutlery, crystal, and china there. Excellent selection with good prices. Village is right on the Rhein River.
Visit nearby castles
that are all along
the Rhein. Stay the night - even with German inflation, a "B&B" can be had
at a decent price - and that German hospitality - can't be better than along this section
of the Rhein.
Travel on up the Rhein to Baca Roc. Another quaint village. Antiques and souvenirs abound. Good prices on that German "standard" Hummels.
