Heidelberg Germany

It was a perfect frizzy hair, warm rainy day. 

Heidelberg, Germany is one of my favorite towns in Germany so far. It was so pretty every where you looked. Zak had a Thursday off, so we were finally able to get out and explore. 

ZAK was loving it when I would take his picture!

Even the views walking into town were beautiful. We stopped off at a cute little restaurant and had some awesome Schnitzel und Pommes.

Then time to finish walking the town and head up towards the castle.

Time to go up ...

Cute! Cute!

So many great things to see, but one of my favorite parts was the wine cave ;)

Only thing left to do is go back down the pathway and checkout the bridge close up.

We ended our day with a touch of the Monkey's mirror. They say it will bring good luck. So far its brought us sickness & car troubles, so we are hoping the lucky part is just around the corner ;) Make sure to check this town out if you can, and if you have questions send me a message. Let me know your favorite picture and if you have been here what was your favorite thing to do/see?

Thanks all. Much Love,

Hohennagold Castle

Hohennagold Castle & trip to the Worlds tallest cathedral.  We have a family member & her friend visiting us for a couple days as they backpack through Europe. So we wanted to go to some fun places. Hubby(Zak) came up with a pretty good game plan. We drove from Stuttgart & first stop took about 1.5 hours to get there. We found a parking spot (possibly private parking spot), and headed off to climb a long steep hill. Of couse I am completely out of shape and was complaining & taking breaks every couple of minutes, but the sweat was worth it when we finally made it to the top. 

'The View halfway up this hill wasn't so bad :)'

So once we hit the top I sat down on the closest thing I could find, rested/de-sweated and started taking pictures and loved looking at the Castle.

This is the beauty you first get to take in.

The castle wall still standing

Zak looking Hot & posing for me!

This Castle was built in 1100 then they made it bigger in 1153 & 1162. Lots of destruction came to this Castle with the 30 year war & in 1945 a tower was destroyed then later restored to preserve this Castle as a ruin. 

Sadly this was the last picture taken at this beautiful place. We walked about 5,000 steps and was very excited to be walking downhill instead of back up. We grabbed a quick ButterBrezel in town and took off for our next destination.. So next blog will be about the tallest Cathedral in the world (yes we climbed to the top so come back soon for that)

Much Love,
