Day 2: Arrival in Heidelberg, Germany

With a short ride, we have made it to Heidelberg! Below are the photos of what are hotel room looks like:

Needless to say, Bridget and I were exhausted from our long flight but we made the final push to do some sightseeing in Heidelberg. We started off by sitting down with the whole tour group, with 28 people from all over the country, to get acclimated with our tour itinerary. We all went out to a delicious restaurant, called Palmbraü, where we had some pork steak and potatoes. I have to admit that was some of the best pork and potatoes that I ever had! Below are some of the photos from Palmbraü:

Couldn’t resist one photo of the two of us!

After a delicious meal, we were able to spend some time traveling around the Heidelberg Christmas Market. We found everything from chocolate foods, mulled wine, artisan woodwork, and numerous nick nacks that could burn a hole in your wallet.

We ended up getting the following goodies during our time this past evening:

We got a mortar and pestle, a honey wand, and two mugs that were filled with mulled wine.

With a final note, we will be preparing for the full tour within the Heidelberg castle and the town of Heidelberg itself. More photos and adventures to come!
