            German  Group
The German group met last Friday, where the topic of discussion was no doubt their recent visit to Hamburg (31st August to 4th September.)  We last met at the Crown at Hawk Green where we enjoyed a lovely lunch before taking our summer break.
On 17th July we returned from 10 very enjoyable days in the mediaeval town of Forchheim in Franconia.10 members of High Lane U3A together with 5 members of Cheadle Hume U3Aand 4 others took part.
During our stay we visited many of the beautiful towns in the area including Bamberg, Bayreuth, Munich and Nuremberg, sampled the local specialities including the wine and beer and enjoyed the hospitality of the local people. Because of the enthusiasm for the beautiful city of Nuremberg 10 of us are going back in December to experience the Christmas Market, the oldest in Germany.

You may wonder why we are doing so much travelling now .  The simple reason is that there are so many more cheap flights from Manchester which makes it more affordable.
