Finally last Friday, the last German Bundesländer started into school holidays. A perfect day to test the parking capacity on the autobahn as you could not really speak of driving with all the stop-and-go and traffic jams.
We headed northwest to my cousins Juliane's wedding. Late evening, we arrived at the Hotel am Schloss (at the castle) in Alzey where we met some other relatives who came earlier from Leipzig.
Saturday after breakfast, we strolled around the old town of Alzey that featured some nice old buildings with metal guild marks.
Later we drove through the nearby wineyards and stopped at a winery www.weingut-stelzer.de. There we tasted wine and later filled the trunk with several bottles.
Then we went back to the hotel for lunch and change of dress and in the early afternoon we headed to the village of Bermersheim vor der Höhe where Juliane and Eugen got married in the church.
The party with all my aunts, uncles, cousins and six grand cousins and many more took place at the hotel. The food was delicious, the cakes awesome and the wine great.
The next morning we enjoyed all another breakfast together with the remaining cake before we left for home. But the next wedding is just three weeks away.
