Shwerin and tyres 9.9.19

Today we spent half the day trying to buy a specialist tyre for reggie and having no luck. They are motorhome tyres and no one had one, our poor german didnt help so we were using translators on my phone to try and help.

In the middle of the tyre hunt we went into Schwerin centre, it is a mazing city set on many lakes with a big castle on one of them. The first thing you noticed was the amount of gold on the roof.

The weather was raining all day so the photos dont give the best impression.

the rear view looks like an indian palace with a great garden


The orangery garden was lovely and smelt really nice.


There were statues everywhere as well.

We then went into the centre of town and had soup for lunch and visited the cathedral. It had coffins  beside the alter , I have never seen that before.


Two of them in the next section had the corner levered open, it was like a dracula movie.


they kept praying even after death



Then we walked back to reggie and did some more tyre hunting.
