This was a castle not too far from here that everyone raves about and we had never made time to see. It was an exciting first for us all together on our family's last day of their visit. You park and hike to the castle through beautiful woods on a nice wide path around a hill.

| It's like a fairy tale castle up on a hill out in the middle of nowhere. |
We paid and went in first to satisfy the hunger of the wild children at one of the restaurants there. They had soups, Flammkuchen, wursts, and such. And after many trips to the bathrooms we finally headed out to find the guided tour.

| Judah has quite the personality, doesn't he? He has been much better behavior-wise lately. I hope it sticks! We are trying out a little bit of hair on him again instead of shaving it all off. |
The tour was very interesting and the castle still had lots of the furniture in it. My favorite part was the bedroom had an altar that was like a large closet with double doors that protruded out of the rest of the castle. You had to step up into the altar because Jesus always had to be the highest in the house. No room or anything could be level with or directly above Him. Kind of cool, huh?

| Would've made a great family picture if we could see Bob. He's in the Ergo on my back, but all you can see is his hair peaking over Genevieve's head. |

| Love this hug! |

| Bob and I walking back to the van. He always surprises me how far he can walk. Once he asked to get out of the Ergo on the hike back, he never asked to go back in. He can walk a long way now. |
An epic finish to the epic trip! We were sad to see them go, especially Isaac since that is his only cousin that is his age. They were great buddies, and it gave me oodles of happiness.
