My sister and I recently spent a day in the city of Lübeck, about an hour North-East of the city of Hamburg. If it sounds familiar, it might be because it is one of the major ports of Germany (...though it is more likely you recall it because most of my flights were out of Lubeck airport!). The city itself is beautiful, because it is surrounded by water and because its Medieval influences are still evident today.
