Heidelberg Part Zwei

Lovely day in Heidelberg. Well, sort of misty and rainy at times, but it's gorgeous never the less. It's one of those quintessential German towns. I'm staying in the old town by the castle hovering just above us. This place is just what I needed (I know, I'm needy!)

Yesterday was a long day... I got up super early to catch the first train out of Copenhagen to Hamburg... and I was impressed with myself that I actually made it and didn't hit snooze. But you know how these things go.... right before we arrived in Hamburg there was some sort of emergency and the train was stuck for an hour. So I missed my connection ... luckily there was a later one through Frankfurt. I could have slept those 2 extra hours in Copenhagen, eh? Ah well... Eventually I did arrive in Heidelberg and all was well. I've been eating very German food...good hearty meals, you know. Oh and German wines, of course ;) I saw the world's largest wine barrel today hehehe... have you ever watched the movie "Strange Brew?" ...

Today I climbed up to the castle and it was well worth the view of the town and area surrounding it. My goodness... I have pictures, but you'll have to wait until later as my camera battery is charging.

I'm feeling pretty good lately and I could keep going I think for a while. Hmmm, I'm already thinking of my next trip ;) Work a bit and then play...ha.

As for my plans in the next couple of days I'am still pretty "citied out".. you've probably noticed I have yet to hit Berlin. Sadly, I think Berlin is off the table right now. I went a few extra places not on my list on this trip and so I feel quite satisfied with that.... I can come back and see Berlin very soon if I want.... right now I'm enjoying the smaller places and if I could, I would love to see more flowers and gardens. I have heard of an amazing garden in Holland...so... I would really enjoy that.

Also, I feel like I need to have a blowout in Paris haha....whatever that means. Yes, I have been there 2 times already, but who can tire of this place?? PLUS I'm very much looking forward to wandering Versailles again and Giverny.

Ok, that's it for now. I'll try to get more pics up.
