Pancakes with St Mary

Today we decided that we would go up the hill to have breakfast (in fairness it was actually afternoon tea now) by the large statue of St Mary that looks out over the city of Trier. We have looked at this statue from a far and have a great view of it from Koras balcony, so to finally head up the hill and see it was really nice.

We drove to the resturant that we were told does the best cakes in all of Trier and ordered pancakes. We're sure the cake would have been great but our tummies just weren't up for it as the first meal of the day! It began to rain while we were sitting out doors eating but we didn't mind, we were under a large tree so we only got drops every now and then, it wasn't enough to run for the Comfort of the indoor seating.

After we had digested we walked for half an hour to the statue. It wasn't a long walk but it was a little bit of a tough one as it was a little steep! From the statue we had great views over the city and the surronding areas, we spent a long time up there just taking it all in and snapping a few photos.

The half hour walk back was once more a little tough, it also had its steep parts and we then drove back home where we sat about, had a drink or two and played cards and board games. A lovely way to finish off an easy, nice day.
