    I am so happy to see you all being so joyful and so grateful. And being so that really doubles your pleasure! Liebe Grüße aus Mittelfranken! btw Why the name "Schlenkerla"? I looked up the German Wiki: A master brewer of a former owner of the brewery had an accident and had to compensate the injuries of his legs by swinging (= schlenkern) his arms while he was walking. And so people called him "Schlenkerla" (= kleiner Schlenker = approx. swerve). Amazing, isn't it? LG 💙

    You captured Bamberg well. And it's great that you went into the church St. Martin. I feel many people miss it even though it's so obvious. It's very opulent. And thanks for the shoutout!!

    Great video, glad you had so much fun here! Should you come back to visit Bamberg again I recommend going to the Altenburg, it's at the edge of the city but if you have the time to go there the view is amazing, you can see the entire city from up there!

    Hi and thank you for this film about my home city! I‘m very proud of it and I‘m glad you liked it here. Btw, I once saw Schlenkerla Rauchbier in a pub in Philadelphia. I know that quite a lot of it is exported to the USA. Perhaps you can find it at your place, too…😉

      It's a fantastic city and worthy of being proud of! We really enjoyed our time there. That's awesome that there was Rauchbier in Philly! We lived there for awhile but I didn't know anything about the beer at the time. I haven't seen any in Leipzig yet, but that's ok since it gives us an extra reason to go back to Bamberg!

    The "Neptun-Brunnen" - which is translated to "Neptuns Fountain" - is among the townfolk called "der Gabelmoo" (Gabelmann bc Gabelmoo is the pronounciation in franconian dialect) - which is translated to "the Forkman" - which is of course related to the trident at the sculpture in the middle.

I'll definitely miss the german culture and the people I've befriended here but Germany probably just isn't the habitat where I feel fully comfortable in (especially as a mexican). I just don't feel like I'm in the right place but would 100% recommend visiting here.

    You made my day! 🤣😄 With your Rauschbier. A Rausch is an intoxication after taking drugs. But it was a Rauchbier, with ch. Rauch means smoke.
    And I suppose you were in the Schlenkerla, stress on the first syllable. Schlenkern is a kind of very relaxed movement which might be aroused in you if you drink too much wine or beer.
    And you shouldn't be vegetarian or someone who dislikes pork, when you taste the Franconian cuisine. 😬
    Im not a big fan of pork, so I will not try a Schäufele or a pork knuckle. But I liked the Fränkisches Hochzeitsessen and the Sauerbraten, both made with beef roast, the former being called Tafelspitz and being cooked quite a while and served with a creamy sauce containing horse radish, the latter marinated sour with many spices and then served in a sauce containing ginger bread or raisins and almonds. Both go best with potatoe dumplings, red cabbage and Preiselbeeren (similar to cranberries).
    Bamberg is a beautiful city, I even bought a DVD with a guided tour along its highlights.
    Würzburg and Nürnberg are also worth a visit, beautiful cathedrales.
    Respect to your (oldest ?) daughter who let her hair cut. Very avant garde. 👍😀 It was quite common to wear a Bubikopf ... in former times, but for quite a while yet German girls wear their hair naturally, I.e. long and little make up. Here mainly girls with "Migrationshintergrund" make up their faces and dress up. No idea why...
    So I hope I will have a closer look on Annemarie in the next video to see how it fits her. 😊
    I wish you all a pleasant journey!

      We did go to Würzburg and Nürnberg after Bamberg, so those videos will be coming in the next few weeks.

      Andreas Graser
      1875 besteigt der Mann, der dem Schlenkerla seinen Namen gibt, den Gambrinusthron drunten im Sand. "Andreas Graser, als "gutä Bräuä und als Wirt bäkannt" ist der erste Schlenkerla:
      weil er gern mit seina Orm a wengla gschlenkert hot, drum hom's ihn Schlenkerla getauft aus Übermut und Spott
      weiß eine Bamberg Reimchronik zu berichten. Manchen reichte diese Version nicht, und sie ließen dem armen Andreas, um seinen schlenkernden Gang zu erklären, noch ein Bierfaß zwischen die Beine rollen und begründen so die Namensgebung."

    Remember that the Lord Jesus Christ died on a cross for you because He loves you so much. He then rose up from the dead three days later.
    The Ten Commandments are called the moral law, (most of us are lying thieving blasphemous adulterer at heart and deserve hell) you and I broke the law, Jesus paid the fine. That’s what happened on that cross.
    By accepting Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and savior and not just confessing your sin, but also repenting of all sin you have done and putting all your trust in Him in prayer, He will grant you everlasting life as a free gift.
