Trip To Heidelberg, Germany *pics*

[DoggiesAreTheBest]

Andrew, Drake, and I went to Heidelberg for the day. It is only an hour's drive away. We had an early start and left Wiesbaden at 9:00 AM. It was a brisk day, but the sky was clear for the most part and the sun was out.

We walked to the Heidelberg Castle and through its gardens and courtyard. The view of Heidelberg from the top of the castle was absolutely breathtaking! We walked around for close to 3 hours and then headed down to the shopping area where there was a 3Km walk way with stores and restaurants and cafes lined on both sides. We walked half way up it and had lunch at a Lebanese place. Then we walked back to the truck while we window shopped and checked out the buildings.

Here are a few of our pictures! It was a fun day and the best part is that Drake was with us!! I love that here in Germany! Drake can go EVERYWHERE with us!! Hope you enjoy the pictures!

I am sure Drake gets lots of positive feedback when you take him along. He's so handsome:D

It looks as if spring would come soon but I bet we'll get some more winter in mid March:(

OMG!! I've been the most of those places! i usedto live ther when i was 4-7. it's so beautiful there isn't it? :D

[shais_mom]

[Uabassoon]

Those pictures are beautiful!

[wolf_Q]

Gorgeous photos!! I love the one of Drake looking out--what a view! That is so great that you can take him everywhere with you!

[dukedogsmom]

Ok, now I want to move there! I would love to have Duke with me all the time. Wonder if he could go to work with me too? Beautiful pics. I think you're very lucky to be able to travel(so to speak) like that. You're getting to see a lot of places that some of us will never get to. Thanks for sharing.

Love the pictures. It looks like a beautiful place. I would love to visit there someday. I love the idea of being able to take Katie everywhere with me. That must be so cool.

[EssTer]

Very georgeos photos :) I love them.... Some of them looks bit like in my mother land Latvia :rolleyes:

[Kirsten]

I love that here in Germany! Drake can go EVERYWHERE with us!!

How do these things work in the United States? Are there restricted areas for dogs? :confused:

Kirsten,

In America you can't take your dog into restaurants (of course you will find the occassional small, privately owned one that will let you bring your pooch in, but it is a rarity!) Dogs are not allowed on public transportation, into malls, shopping stores, banks, or anywhere else.

We have been able to take Drake with us everywhere we go here in Germany and that is wonderful. I love having Draker with us when we go shopping or stop somewhere to eat. The waiter always brings Drake a bowl of water and a treat! Drake has ridden the bus several times as well. Hasn't taken the train yet, but he will once we do :) I can go clothes shopping with him. And there hasn't been a hotel yet that has said: Sorry, No Dogs!!

[ramanth]

Souraya, those pictures are gorgeous! What beautiful scenery and the castle is just breathtaking. :) That's so awesome that Drake can go with you. :)

[Logan]

What beautiful pictures, Souraya! Of course, I am envious that he can go everywhere with you. If we had the ability to do that, I'd be worrying about which one to take with me, though!!!! :) Maybe it's a good thing that you only have Drake to be concerned with right now!!!! :D
