Rhine Valley Part 2

We had another great trip to the Rhine Valley. This was the first time we have returned to a place we have already visited and we enjoyed it just as much as we did the first time. The weather was fantastic, it was sunny and warm the whole time we were there. We stayed in the town of Bacharach in the Hotel am Markt.

It was really nice, but because it was built in 1900, there wasn't an elevator so having a room on the fourth floor was a little tough. We toured the town and took another river cruise with Char and Jack. We also went to St. Goar to explore the Rheinfels Castle. It is the largest castle overlooking the Rhine and construction was started in 1245.

Aunt Lori and Jack were very interested in exploring the castle.

The view of the river from the castle was incredible.

 Jack spent some time in the stocks for a crime he claims he didn't commit.

We are back in Paris now and I'm looking forward to a quiet morning. Too many stairs, too much heat and too many questions from an 8 year old have worn out Uncle Dennis.
