I(Karl) have been in Germany since Friday. We landed on Friday morning and drove (really fast) to Mannheim for a meeting at the Deere factory. Once we finished up the meeting we checked into a hotel but had to force ourselves to stay awake to better adjust to the time. I definitely went to bed early though. The next day, Saturday, we went to a small town south of Mannheim called Heidelberg which was nestled in between two hills on a river. Heidelberg's pride and joy is a castle which they are continuing to restore to its original state. Here are some pictures around town and in the castle.

Down by the river!
We drove to Zweibrucken later on Saturday where we are staying the rest of the week.

I will post a few more pictures later... this is all I have for now since I was an idiot and did not bring my own camera. Who takes a trip without a camera? -Karl
Andrish, I hope you enjoy the pictures! Love you and will see you soon!
