From Munich to Heidelberg

 Today's adventure took the form of a very long drive. What was supposed to be a 3-1/2 hour trip took almost 6 hours between rain and road construction. But what awaited us in Heidelberg was a beautiful old city lined with cobblestone. The entire shopping district is pedestrian only. Despite the rain we had a fabulous dinner, visited a chocolatier and saw some wonderful architecture including a lovely church.
Rain doesn't slow many people down. I think the rain makes the streets even more beautiful.

We plan to cross this bridge tomorrow and take a hike to the ampitheater and a monastery. The castle is one our "must do" list as it is one of the most beautiful castles in the region. Let's just hope for a little sunshine.
