Mugendorf Pumpkin Festival - October 4, 2009

Check out our photos at: MUGENDORF PUMPKIN FESTIVAL

This is a continuation of our fun surprise weekend in Pottenstein, Germany. These towns are actually located really close to where we live, but it felt like we were so far away. (maybe because we are in Germany :)

We woke up and headed out for some adventures. We stopped by the town of Mugendorf around 10 am and we could see the festival being set up, but we had no idea what was in store. We left there and drove around and toured another castle and we met the current owner.

Then we decided to drive back to the pumpkin festival and we were shocked! The town had exploded with people. I think we were the very last car they let through into the parking lot. We got "rock star" parking and a great spot on the parade route. We got to enjoy all the decorated tractors and carved pumpkins. Now you can enjoy them too!
