In 1973 I graduated from the European Division of the University of Maryland. The graduation was in Heidelberg, a beautiful old university city. The University sprung for a dinner cruise on the River Necker. The ceremony was held at Patrick Henry Village; the US Ambassador delivered the commencement address. I would not miss Heidelberg.

I don’t know about you but one thing on *my* bucket list is to someday rent a BMW or Audi and do 120 on the Autobahn.

My rental car, a BMW 320D with a speedometer that goes up to 260kph:

We settled in on 3 different road trips, starting yesterday with a trip to Marksburg Castle then stopping at Mainz on the way back. We would have loved to seen more of Mainz but with DST already gone in Germany it was too dark to see much by 6pm. Today we are going to Kloster Kruezberg for lunch and a beer then to Bad Orb. Sunday will be Rothenburg ob der Tauber and Wurzburg. It's been a wonderful experience.
