It was a lot of fun (and quite a special experience) visiting the city. Don't have to live there.

It was wonderful to visit, but I am still a little salty about the Schlossberg. It has an incline elevator, not a funicular! And the Schlossberg tower was closed to the public. And, of course, my daughter stepped in the Bächle repeatedly. They were like a magnet for her.

I'm joking about being salty. Well, mostly. I want to go back and do more hiking. Hopefully, the tower will be open to the public, next time.

According to Wikipedia:

> It is local superstition that if you accidentally step in the Bächle, you will marry a Freiburger
