On our first day in Germany, we met up with our tour guide Kris, who took us to Heidelberg. It is a beautiful little city with the oldest university in Germany, founded in the 1300s. We visited the Heidelberg castle, where we saw the world's largest wine barrel (it had a dance floor on top). We had some free time to walk into town and shop, and students had the opportunity to procure their own lunches. Nobody went hungry, which means they all did great fending for themselves! After a bit of exploring, jetlag really set in. We walked across the Nekar river and sat on the bank, soaking in some much welcomed sunshine to help reset our internal clocks. Then we headed to our hotel for the night where we ate dinner and are about to crash! -Ms. Nak
