This morning we had breakfast atthe hotel like usual. This was by far the worst breakfast so far! There was barely any selection, the eggs tasted wierd, the bread was hard. It was just a fail! We then drove to Speyer, Germany, where we visited the Dom which included some crypts insidethrcathedral. This cathedral is nearly 1,000 years old- incredible! After looking through the Dom we took the bus to Heidelberg where we got lunch (German pizza- pretty good!) and then toured the Heidelberg castle which is mostly destroyed due to the French. It took 400 years to build the castle. Afer our tour we had four hours to roam Heidelberg which was way too much time. We got independent dinner here and then took the bus back to Schwetzingen where we had free time the rest of the night.

The Holy Ghost church, where the Heidelberg catechism was written. I thought Ken would appreciate this!

This morning I woke up with an awful sore throat. Immediately it felt like strep and I got really worried, but I have been taking some Tylenol and that has subsided the soreness so hopefully it is nothing. I. Will. Not. Get. Sick! Pray that I will feel better soon, though! Thanks!
Pce. & Blessings.

1) I can totally see your face at breakfast when there was no selection. And hear your voice. Disgusted, I'm sure.
ReplyDelete2) I love that you took a pic of that church for Arn - he really will love it... hahahahaha :)
3) Miss ya! But looks like you're having a great time - keep up the posts!!
First, keep a close watch on your throat and get it checked out if it is not better by tomorrow!
