On our last day at Lake Constance we went to see a museum dedicated to the zeppelin in Friedrichshafen - where it was developed a bit more than 100 years ago by count Zeppelin.
In the mid 1930'ies one could travel to the US or Brazil in the large air ships
They were bigger than an ocean liner and a modern Airbus A380 looks small in comparison
In the museum the passenger cabin had been recreated
The Bauhaus style furniture looks still modern
The walls were metal frames covered with cloth
Outside it had gotten really cold and windy
On the drive back to Heidelberg it was even snowing
The sudden cold weather with frost at night was really bad news for the fruit orchards and wine yards - some farmers got big losses
