Man on the Street: answers from the KMC

March 28, 2013

We asked: Where is a fun, easy day trip near Kaiserslautern that you would recommend to others?

“The best place for a party or just kid fun is Spiel und Spass Fabrik. I love the climbing ropes to get to the big slide.” — Tessa Lissau, 10“My favorite day trip is to Chateau Vianden in Luxembourg. It’s not far away and the little town is cute and friendly. I take all of my family that comes to visit me to this chateau and even though we have been there five times already it never gets old!” — Celeste Medel“Trifels Castle is a fun, historical trip and easy to visit from the KMC. Annweiler, the town close by, has a Richard the Lionheart festival and other celebrations throughout the year.” — Dr. (Capt.) Benjamin Freeman“The science museum in<br />Pirmasens. Kids and adults love it. It<br />has this exciting motion chair that is a wild ride and a house that feels like<br />its going upside down but really isn’t.”— Staff Sgt. Randy Rhodes“Trier is just an hour away and is the oldest city in Germany. I marvel at its beautiful cathedral, and going there feels like a small vacation.” — Sergio Jaquez
