I<\/strong> spent two weeks in Frankfurt Germany for training.\u00a0 The classes were during the week leaving us the weekends to explore a very small part of the land of my ancestry, and do our best to avoid the pitfalls of debauchery.\u00a0 The last Saturday, seven of us decided to take the train to Heidelberg for the day.\u00a0 The seven included the wife of one and the girlfriend of another, thus keeping the conversations a little more refined.<\/p>\n

We met at the Starbucks at the Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof,- Train Station <\/em>(below)\u00a0<\/em>and boarded the train about 10 in the morning and arrived about noon. \"\"<\/a>Our one main goal is to see the famous Heidelberg castle which is in ruins, so we set out on foot in that direction.\u00a0 That\u2019s the best way to see many places in the world: on foot.\u00a0\u00a0 Below are some images from the castle.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Inside the castle is what remains of the palace. Notice the amazing sculptures.<\/p>\n

Energy saving clock on the building.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This door was on one of the walls in the courtyard.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0Looking down on the village of Heidelberg from the castle.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0We found a place in the basement of the palace to sit and buy a beer.\u00a0 Afterwards, as we headed back to the train station, we stopped at one of the many places outside to eat.\u00a0 Seems to be the favorite pastime of the German people, sitting and eating.\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

More on Frankfurt later.\u00a0 See ya then.\u00a0 D.<\/p>\n
