Our hotel in Tübingen was situated right around the corner from city hall. After a restful night in my very sweet room, I awoke to blue skies and sunshine. Paul and I walked to the Universität Tübingen and participated in the Study Abroad Fair that was held in the Mensa, then had a few hours to explore the city.
As is true in most German cities, the local castle proved to be a good starting place. Schloss Hohentübingen offers a wonderful view of the city.
And once again, I was struck by the similarities between the city of Tübingen and Cornelia Funke's Inkworld. In my imagination, Hohentübingen
is the Castle of Ombra.
At the farewell dinner, we said goodbye to the Family Meeting participants and our gracious Universität Tübingen hosts, and the next morning Paul and I walked to the train station for the journey to our next destination: Munich. The rain was back, but the city still magically beautiful.
