A little bit behind indeed. This trip is just flying by and we are doing so many fun filled activities! I had no idea what day it was until just recently! So I must apologize. Time to rewind!
Today, Saturday, June 18th, 2011, was another day for family fun. Once again I couldn´t tell you what the others did, but why not entertain you a little with what I did, for those of you interested anyway.
I got to sleep in a little bit today! But don´t mistake that for the start of a lazy day! We jumped right into it. We started off by visiting Feengrottenpark which is kind of like our Marengo Caves. Fun fact for the day: Feengrottenpark was in the 1993 Guienness Book of World Records because nature made them to be the most colorful of its kind in the world. It is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Thuringia and is also an impressive example of medieval mining.
After our splunking adventure, we headed to Heidecksburg palace. It was HUGE. When they told me about it, my first impression was "Oh cool, another castle!". Boy was I wrong. I´m talking gold plated doors and such. The rooms were big enough to fit 100 people each. If you are interested, here is a link.------------> http://www.heidecksburg.de/cms/pages/en/home.php?lang=EN.
