We met the group at the Holiday Inn express restroom and from there headed downtown for a walking tour that lasted from 10 o’clock to 12 o’clock. It was the Asheville free walking tour and I would recommend it for anyone wanting to get a quick overview. Asheville is a University because there are lots of examples of different architecture downtown. And Asheville is known for the mini micro breweries and we did pass a couple and stopped at one Distillery. We sampled several alcohols and my favorite was the chocolate liquor. I will admit that I did not fully pay attention to the tour, because with such great friends around we often fell into laughing over silly things. There were 11 of us in our tour and the guide said she did enjoy our company. After the tour we went to Woolworths and had either a drink or a small snack. We went back to the hotel and hung out for a while before we headed out at 4 o’clock for dinner reservation at HausHeidleburg. This restaurant is located in Hendersonville about 30 minutes outside of the city but it was well worth the drive. It truly looks like a German guesthouse inside with mini Germany photos and mugs decorating the restaurant. I ordered a Jager schnitzel and Scotty had an all American schnitzel. We each had a Weisse Bier here and we both agreed it was one of the best meals we’ve had in a long long time. Everyone truly enjoyed their meals and we again laughed a lot. Our excellent waiter make our meal that much more enjoyable. We had the conference room reserved at the hotel so after dinner we hung out there and again caught up with each others lives.
