Trip to the Rhine River

We drove to Rudesheim am Rhein  and

walked around the town.

 We then started driving down the Rhein River

stopping in villages along the way.

 As we started having lunch in a little village,

Elder J got a phone call from a Mission President.

He then went to a quiet bench and called the Missionary

who need some help.  I sat and waited for our lunch.

There are so many castles along both sides of the river.

 There were lots of celebrations along the river.  

This town even had a great "um pa pa" band.

 This cute little car was in front of us driving down the other side

of the river.  There was a driver and a kid riding in it.

 We stopped and decided to hike up to a castle.

 It was a straight up walk.

Inside the castle was beautiful.

There were many floors and rooms we could wander in.

 This is the view of the river from the castle.

 Not sure what this room was ... but there were some 

bones that looked like legs sticking out.

 This is the kitchen.

The walkway from the road.

This was a narrow staircase up to the top of the castle.

 Dad refused to walk with me ... I understand way ...

It was scary!

 Dad is taking a picture of me!

We made it back down from Burg Rheinstein,

and then headed home.
