Heidelburg



My favorite city in Germany was Heidelburg. Not only was it a huge city full of bustling shoppers and tourists, but it had amazing bars! It was also one of the cities where we stayed long enough to get a full idea of what it was like to live there. The only barrier we came across was conversing with the taxi drivers or bartenders. Some of the people in the group spoke German, so it was easy if they were around, but when they weren't it was a battle to understand each other. The town was gorgeous! It was filled with houses and shops capped with red-brown roofs. The town was spaced out in long rows of stores, houses and various red buildings. There was an exciting aurora given off by the atmosphere that we all felt. I included a couple pictures of the town with me. Yet, if you ask anyone about Heidelburg they will either tell you about its nightlife or how cold it got! It was so cold while we were there, we froze within 5 to 10 minutes! It was actually painful at times! Still, it was my favorite city in Germany. Looking at everything from the town, the nightlife all the way to what I wore, signifies a positive connection to the special place where lifelong friendships were made.
