Nov 2-Charming Bamberg

Today's town is Bamberg,  which I had never heard of before.   It was a nice surprise.   One of it's 3 districts is a farming area whose products are sold in the town square.  It wasn't ever bombed, so it has quaint cobblestone streets and historic buildings. The city hall has outside walls covered with colorful murals and is in the middle of the river that flows through town.  Kayakers navigate a race course on the river next to city hall.  There are over 10 beer  breweries in this small town.  It is known for a beer with a smoky flavor.
