Heidelberg Castle

On my first full day in Heidelberg, Andrea and I went to go see the big castle on the hill in Heidelberg. The cool thing about where she lived was that it was only about a 5 minute walk from her house to the entrance of the castle. I really like ancient history and so I was thrilled to go and walk around. One major bummer about Germany though is that to see anything inside (n matter where I was in the country), you have to take the guided tours. To be totally honest, I can only handle so much "guiding" when I am on vacation... so we only saw the castle grounds and the giant wine barrel and the German Museum of Pharmacy. All in all, it was a good day. Here are some pictures:
