    We were in Speyer on a Sunday but only did some window shopping. Germany has quite rigorous regulations regarding shopping hours, the only ones open on a Sunday are petrol stations, railway stations and airports and even these can close without prior warning. The exception to these regulations are pharmacies and bakeries - well we all need the staff of life and medications sometimes, they operate on a rota system. Another thing about shopping is they close early on a Saturday between 13.00 & 14.00. I did like the pretty window displays and some of the goods looked tempting like the funny sheep and the delicous ginger breads - but hey I don't really like shopping and it saved me some money.

    What To Buy: Petrol Bread Medicine

     I am coming back to read in depth about your visit to Speyer. You took some wonderful photographs.    		VeronicaG Thu Mar 19, 2009 19:57 UTC
     Speyer seems to offer splendid views from atop its architectural gems! Its wealth of cathedrals with beautiful paintings and interiors must have kept you entranced--it sounds very nice....
