Dang, the sky is still exactly the same. We were lucky this first day in that although the sky was pretty crummy, it really wasn't too cold and it didn't rain. The Romerhof is about 1/4 mile north of the Vaihingerhof in the north part of Stuttgart-Vaihingen. After checking in about noon, we went downstairs to get our first German meal! We both ordered schnitzel with fried potatoes (not pommes frites). The Romerhof restaurant is a little fancier than your typical gasthaus. It's more a "restaurant". The meal started out with a small salad (a slice or two of cucumber and tomato) and small slice of bread. Pretty dinky and I thought, uh oh, this isn't good. But the Schnitzel (which I think was pork) and potatoes were more than we could eat, and just what we'd hoped for. Washed that down with a Spezi! (Coke and Fanta combined) After eating we were trying to stay up as long as we could, so we started a walk around Vaihingen. We couldn't get on Patch just yet, as Brian hadn't yet clocked in with the ID Card folks, so he wasn't registered, so he couldn't have sign-on privileges (couldn't sign me on). We had to wait until the next morning (Monday) and go over to Panzer Kazerne to sign in, which ended up working fine.
