German Hermann

We spent much of the day today in Hermann, MO --an old German settled town where Oktoberfest is just getting started. It's a touristy town with wineries and a brewery and brats and sauerkraut. (also a few tourist shops) We weren't brave enough to try any Missouri wine. Would you drink something from a grape named Norton. Billy who is the expert on Hermann wine wasn't working today. We did drink some local beer and the brats on a pretzel bun were the best "hot dogs" I have ever had. Lunch was late because we went to a State Historic Park which involved touring several old homes--and the tour started at 12:30. They had free samples of Cliff Bars to see us through and we got to sample tomatoes from the garden.
We have come back to the same RV park as last night. Still quite chilly.

Yes, we tried wine made from a grape called Norton. It was pretty darn good, too. Had a nice time in Hermann & vicinity on the wine trail. So I guess you skipped the winery that aged their wine in the caves below the hotel? But I think the wines are too sweet for your taste.
