Atop the Burg


Here we are up on top of Burg Hohenzollern. It's a castle up on a small mountain, with awesome views of the fields and villages below.


We walked around the castle walls and checked out all the nooks and crannies. I can't remember if this was a nook or a cranny ;-)

Cool window


Here we are at another cool place -- Burg Hohenzollern -- just a short drive from our house.

Takes a little effort getting up here (get ready for an uphill walk), but it's pretty cool, and you get exercise too!


Take a look at the cool fortress, and get a partial glimpse of the amazing views from this place, high on a hill.

Also, you can tell these guys must be OK -- check out their coat of arms below. That's one of my ancestors there (though obviously not a particularly attractive one ;-)
