Marburg

Well! Imagine that, another post in such a short time. But how could I not? Free wireless LAN in the hotel tonight. Sweet!

Not much has happened since my last entry... We're in Marburg now, pretty neat. Visited another castle. (Why do they always have to be on the top of the mountain? It's so much walking up! And 500 year old cobblestones do not make an easy trip coming down. Especially in the rain. When we haven't had lunch yet. And my shoes have no rainy traction.)

We visited the St. Elizabeth church today. Really cool old church, still with multiple altars. I've trained myself to wait until I get to the front of the church before I turn around, no matter what looks are on everyone else's faces, so I get to see the whole organ at once. That was the wierdest, most "modern" organ I have ever seen in my life, and this church is older than Luther!
It was built last year.


Oh, and I used up all but the last 80 or so pictures on my camera, so I'm in the middle of uploading almost 1GB of pictures and video onto my computer. Heh, and we still have a week left.

Oh! and yesterday at the Kartoffelhaus I had Kartoffelpoofers (not the correct spelling) with apple sauce and pork schnizel. Um-yay!

Well, I must be going now, there is much sleep to be had after climbing three castles in the past three days. Why are they all on mountain tops?

Until the next
