Visit to Heidelberg...



We experienced rain, thunder, lighting, and sunshine all in one visit. The churches and the Castle date back to the 1100. We rode the train up the mountain in a four passenger car with a famous opera singer from the New York Metropolitan Opera Company and her chaperon, who was also her accompanist. She was very friendly and familiar with the church. While passing this castle chapel with the missionaries, the doors opened and out she came with the wedding party. I believe she performed a number for the wedding. She recognized me and came right over, grabbed my hands as if we were old friends, told me about the wedding then bid me farewell. All the other missionaries wanted to know how I knew someone from the wedding. I really didn't, she knew the church.


Security opened the castle church door as we were passing by and we caught a glimpse of the bride and groom. I learned that the camera cannot be turned sideways and the movie later straightened.
