Entering Germany

It is Saturday, and to catch up, we left Leiden in the Netherlands on Thursday and traveled to Mainz, Germany where Johann Guttenburg made the movable printing press and printed the Bible - starting the mass production of the Bible.
We stayed the night in Germany's capital Frankfurt. (more below)



















Friday we traveled to Worms (where Martin Luther made his stand in reforming the catholic church). Scott got his picture with the Luther statue.

We then went to Heidelburg, the birthplace of one of the greatest theologians around (I'll let you ask at church to who that is). (more below)

 
















We stayed last night in Rottenburg ob de Tour, an amzing walled city built around 1,000AD. The food continues to be amazing - see Ashley's pizza and Ashley and Ang had Schneballen.




 


Today, we drove to Stuttgart to see Lindy Glaser (from WCC) and we have been relaxing at her place.
