So far, our trip has been a great success. We started out with our pre-international travel ritual of double margaritas at the airport and had great seats on the plane (thank you Expedia seat suggestions). Jesse may or may not have cried during Confessions of a Shopaholic, and we arrived on time. We've already adjusted to the jet lag, our hostel...

We arrived in Heidelburg after a series of short train hops, including a quick stop in Frankfurt in the vain hunt for a BBQ chicken place which is presently shut down for remodeling. Frankfurt was windy, rainy, and cold, so we did not stay long before hopping back on the train. After another regional train ride, we arrived in Heidelburg where we...

We went out for some shopping again this morning and I ended up buying some new eyeglass frames- very nice and different from what we can find in Calgary! I wanted to go closer to Heidelberg castle but there is a major renovation of both it and the "Karl Theodore Alte Bruke" (old bridge), hence the pics are at a distance. PS I didn't have my tri...

No one told us that there were 2 number 33 buses going in different directions, so we ended up at the most beautiful place...but the very wrong place. We had to get bus 33 AGAIN! but th...
