New cars, an Old Castle and a Giant Keg, that's what weekends are made of!

This past weekend I made a trip to Frankfurt, Germany with several friends from Radolfzell, Kyle and Josh, and one from Saarbrucken, Mike. The occasion was the Frankfurt Auto Show. For those of you who are not gearheads this is the show where all the new models and styles of cars are released to the world. I can now say that I saw them on day 1 and that some are pretty nice.

I got to do a test drive of an off roading course in a Isuzu truck. and an automatic breaking system as well.
And that was my saturday, we had spent the night before and after in a hotel near Frankfurt. So on Sunday as we headed home we stopped over in Heidelberg. Home of the Heidelberg castle one of the oldest in germany. Napoleon had attempted twice to take her but was unsuccessful.
