Having never thought about it, it had never occurred to me that Rottweilers came from a place called Rottweil, which until your post, I had never heard of.
That photographer is me 🙂 (except that I am expected to keep up — nobody waits for me).
I’m interested that the crop you are cycling through is oats. You don’t see oats much here.
Did you find out what the tower is for? What is it testing?
I love the water trough, and so immaculately clean!
Any idea what the odd and out of place stripey yellow and black shutters in Obendorf are about?

No, I didn’t know that Rottweilers were from Rottweil either :).
JM is the one who takes ages with photos. I shout out “Photo!” and he usually stops, comes back, has a look, takes the cap of his lens lens, fiddles around with goodness knows what, takes the photo and puts the lens cap back on. Meanwhile, I have already taken my photo with my trusty iPhone and am waiting patiently :).
You often see oats in Germany and very rarely see animals in the open, even in summer.
It’s a tower for testing lifts (ascenseurs). I guess my paragraph isn’t clear enough.
Thank you Lorri! It is not easy to talk to the locals when you don’t speak their native tongue. It also depends on the type of accommodation. When we cycled along the Danube, we met more people.

It sounds like you’ve enjoyed it. The covered bridges are a particular delight. That tower seems rather out of place.
Yes, the covered bridges are lovely and I agree about the tower.

We loved the water trough too.
Stripey something/black shutters are quite common in Germany. I don’t know if there is any significance. http://www.aussieinfrance.com/2013/06/cycling-on-the-danube-in-germany-binzwangen-to-mengen-including-zwiefalten/. I cannot find any information in English or French about Obendorf, not even the name of the church!
I’m sad that this is only the first real conversation you’ve had in Germany!
I found the name but it is in German. Augustiner Klosterkirche
