Heidelberg from the Hotel
by Howard Tayler from Schlock Mercenary on (#2YQ7Q)
Look, I could totally go outside, but right now I'm enjoying the view of my notebook's screen while I listen to something that is neither engine noise nor other human beings.
I'm in Heidelberg, Germany. It's 5:30pm, and by this time tomorrow I'll be on a plane bound for Helsinki. Behind me lie three nifty castle tours, and lots of walking. I won't trouble you with the travelogue beyond a few bullets:
- There's a mural in Neuschwanstein castle that looks like a Disney matte painting. Chronology suggests that Walt Disney took some pictures when he visited.
- The stairway trail up to Hohenzollern castle means business.
- Trains are way better than buses because they have wi-fi.
Obviously we got off the ship okay. That seems like forever ago, but I guess it was just Saturday. I've lost track. WorldCon is my next big thing, and by this time next week I should be in Indianapolis bracing for GenCon Indy. And after that? HOME.
Home is my favorite.
