Hohenzollern

We went to Hohenzollern Castle today, under postcard skies. Hohenzollern was the inspiration for the Disney castle.






This was one of those times when you understand the reason for all the stained glass. The sun was so intense it was projecting the colors onto the interior - check out the neon-like glow on the object on the right.







We also visited the walled city of Bebenhausen:





This kid was awesome. He came walking past with an angry look on his face, dragging his sled, totally alone. He didn't even acknowledge our presence. I also like this photo because it illustrates the fact that these medieval villages are still very much living towns. That kid lived there and was going about his day just like any other kid would, albeit a little more serious about his sledding than most.
