It was nice to get a bit longer to walk around and check it out, it really is a lovely little city. I guess it&#8217;s hard to say, but it seems like somewhere I could live for sure.<\/p>\n<p>We climbed up a hill and found a flying fox. On the other side of the hill there was a couple of para-gliders trying to catch the wind. We watched them for a while but the wind never quite got the guts up to lift them off. One of them tried to lift off and got a few metres up before coming back down again &#8211; all a bit hairy.<\/p>\n<p>Later in the arvo we grabbed another train to Plochingen. We were going to get off and have a look but it was a bit late, so we stayed on &#8217;til Stuttgart hauptbahnhof. From there we took the U-bahn up the hill to the Fernsehturm again, this time for the sunset.<\/p>\n<p>The view from the top was seriously speccy, and only got better as the sun went down.

It was pretty cool though, we must spend a bit more time there next time we&#8217;re around.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jeremy and I found ourself in B\u00c3\u00b6blingen on a Sunday with not much to do.
