Germany Part One: We're Really, Really Tired

Gutentag!
The morning we left Paris, we checked out of the hotel at 6AM. Our train left at 7 something, and by lunchtime we were safely in Karlsruhe, Germany to visit some family friends. We all had lunch together, then we drove to Heidelberg to see the castle ruins there. The tour was awesome - our guide was great and the stories were really intriguing. We shopped a little, then went to a biergarten for dinner before turning in for the night.

The next morning, we took a train (at a reasonable hour) to Munich. That day was reserved for laundry, though we did see the glockenspiel and eat at the Hard Rock. The rest of the day was mostly a wash.

Yesterday we checked out Schloss Neuschwanstein. It's a castle in Germany from the 1800's that was the inspiration for one of Disney's castles. It was a very long day, but we enjoyed it.
Love you all,
Megan
