More Heidelberg impressions

It's very clean. And organized.

No shops are opened on Sunday, except those at the train station. Those are more expensive.

There are a lot of signs and sights that look exactly like the States - only German. Then, there are some really funny signs. A separate post about those is coming later.

There seems to be a uniform style to the city architecture, that is adhered to even now. Thus, the city looks uniformly cute - no ugly monster buildings sticking out here and there, spoiling the view.

Alltogether, it's quite impressive. And quite cold.

We did some shopping today, after we were shown to the discount clothing store. The shops in the touristy center are, naturally, quite expensive.

Here is Roxy trying to decipher the map and Vicky about to give a speech about us looking too much like tourists.



More later (Vicky is looking over my shoulder, ready to grab the computer).
