Draft for proofreading
Arnstadt is small town in the Ilmkreis region of Thuringia with a history of over 2300 years. I never questioned to make it a part of our little travel guide. As usual I parked my little yellow car outside of the town center and walked which was really painful with my injured knee. I was feeling like an old man and I was happy that no old lady with a walker was passing me. Note: They have walkers in Thuringia but instead of scooters for handicapped people they often use little cars which are limited to a maximum speed of 25 km/h!. Much more comfort - especially in winter and you can take your dog and your wheel chair with you!
 Cute little kids screamed some kind of hello to me I learned very fast that every Tuesday a big market is held in Arnstadt. Vendors from all over the area are coming to offer all kind of merchandise during this event.  A market is always a good opportunity to meet friends The complete downtown area has been reserved for pedestrians. Only delivery vehicles are allowed. I believe this is a great idea and I do not understand that this concept did not spread to Canada.
I was in need of a real meal and I discovered a nice looking restaurant which offered a variety of Thuringian food - even during the week. Unfortunately, this is not always the case - but I hope this will change with increasing tourism.  A typical restaurant in Thuringia  Market in Arnstadt I was one of the first guests and took a seat at the window to watch the market scenery and the shoppers. Normally, you can select the place where you want to sit and must not wait to be seated. It is also normal that other people will share with you the table. Unfortunately, smoking was still allowed everywhere. I wished the "Green Party" would introduce a clean air act in public places instead of creating continuously new taxes and fees to rip off people and business! I ordered again duck with dumplings and red cabbage. It was delicious.
