Ludwigsburg pumpkin festival...

Saturday we ventured by train to Ludwigsburg for the worlds largest pumpkin festival that takes place at the Ludwigsburg Palace.

Pumpkin races. They carve out the inside of huge pumpkins and then get inside and  paddle around the pond.



Cool pumpkin sculptures and carvings.

A sculpture we saw on our way back to the train station. 


The Germans are not as uptight as Americans in regards to nudity. We walked past a photography studio that had a mixture of pictures. Everything from children to scenery to nudes.  

A cool street in Ludwigsburg.
