We departed the Hotel after a good breakfast and decided that we would go via Schwenigen again and perhaps spend some time there looking around. Well when we go there it looked like the world and his wife had decided to visit and there was no car parking available and there were people everywhere including a large group of 40 odd skateboarders who screwed up the traffic until the cops arrived on the scene and took control.
We departed south along the coast line and eventually arrived at our hotel which was outside of town, and largely chosen for having own car park as most the Hotels in town have street parking. The Hotel was called the Shanghai Hotel
and we could see why when we arrived as the main restaurant was Chinese and it was obvious that evening there was a Chinese wedding to take place. We were both both a bit peckish and looked at the snack menu and they wanted 16.50 Euros for a burger and fries and so we walked 150 yards down the road to a Mcdonalds where you order by a big screen and they deliver the food to your table, very sensible and the total for the two of us was 12.50 Euros.
We had an afternoon rest and and took a taxi to the Market square which was absolutely packed with people and bicycles sitting drinking and enjoying the evening sun .
We walked around the old town for a while and then stopped in the main square and had a quick Chardonnay before heading off to our booked restaurant called Buenos Aires, yes it was an Argentinian Steak house and buy was it good.
Jennifer had her steak with a mushroom sauce whilst Noel carefully explained about the no Garlic and Onions etc and they went out of their way to ensure there was no problem. Along with the steak we enjoyed a bottle of Malbec which was also very good and then took a taxi back to the Hotel. The bed in the Hotel was a typical had Chinese bed but somehow we enjoyed the nights sleep.
We noticed that as there was no air conditioning or windows in the corridors there was a smell of Chinese cooking which thank heavens did not impact upon the room but would not stay there again.
