Bill and Ruth's Big Adventure!!! Days 1 and 2

Mom and Dad made it safely to Heidelberg, Germany without any problems! The trip went smoothly and they have been out partying day and night. I can't get them to stop drinking!

Yesterday we let Mom take a nap while we took Dad on a long walk through the Aldstadt. We had a nice traditional German dinner and then took him for some ice cream in Neunheim. After a good night's sleep, Bill and Ruth were up to their old tricks again and were ready to party it up at the Heidelberg Castle. We went for a long walk in the castle gardens and then had another delicious dinner at a beautiful Garden restaurant near the Kornmarkt. As I write this, Dad is pretending to not nod off to sleep while Weebs is watching the Young and the Restless episode that we taped for her while we were out today. We predict that they will both be snoozing at around 9pm. I have to say that I'm very impressed with their energy level and endurance!

I'm not sure what is on our agenda for tomorrow, but I have posted some snapshots from our day today.

One the Rental Car shuttle at DFW. We got there with plenty of time to spare. Just ask Dad!
