Well, we conquered Germany this weekend. We spent time at Gerard's house in Rieden, Germany. We had plans to go to Pfungstadt to see the Crossman graves on Saturday, but Onno and Myrna's van broke down, so we had to wait until Sunday. We did get to see Albert Einstein the Mechanic when they came to check out the van.
We spent the evening in Koblenz looking around at some old buildings and ruins. All the ruins were under some sort of restoration so they were hard to see.
We made it to Pfungstadt on Sunday and saw Russelsheim on the way. Took lots of pictures in Pfungstadt and then stopped at some to climb some centuries old ruins on the way back to Rieden and then on back to Renkum, Netherlands.
Monday Myrna took us to a local castle from the early middle ages. It was beautiful. We then went to an open air museum where they have moved houses and buildings from different eras of Holland to this area. You can walk in and see how people have lived all over Holland through the centuries. The buildings are all original and some were torn down brick-by-brick and then rebuilt on site. It was a very interesting place. We also spent some time at the Arnhem war cemetery for the soldiers that died in the Market Garden operation or World War II.
So...whirlwind done, now time to travel for 20 hours to get home!
Love you all!
Enjoy the Pics!
