The wheels on the bus go 'round and 'round

So we left the beautiful Alps Tuesday morning and basically, we were in the bus most of the day. We took a quick stop at the Rhine Falls mid-morning. 

Then a few hours later we stopped in a cute little rest stop that they had built up to be a sort of Hale Farm complete with glass-blowing and wood-working buildings and a restaurant. After lunch, back on the bus for a few more hours to Heidelberg. The bus took us all the way to the castle at the top of the hill where we enjoyed the lookouts and saw huge wine barrels in the cellar. 

We had a little free time to explore the city and get a "little" ice cream. 

Then we had a hotel in Heppenheim with a lookout of cute, quintessentially German timbered houses. 

We repacked our suitcases and got a good night's sleep in preparation for our day of travel today. (I'm writing this from the Frankfurt Airport while we're waiting to board.). 

See you soon!  

(Roxy, I'll be home soon!!) 😺
