Our group, minus Beth (Student Life Coord., taking the picture) and plus Dr. Cross (visiting professor from Corban College).
A cathedral and a lamppost. I like lampposts.
I like lampposts.
Three kings among those known as history's greatest. One of them is Charlemagne (sadly, I can't remember the others). The whole lineup of history's greatest kings (twelve or so, I think) are just one of the decorative aspects of the Beautiful Fountain in the main square in Nuremberg.
The blend of old and older.
One view of the castle in Nuremberg.
Another view within the castle complex.
I like lampposts.
Front view of the church on one end of the main square, with some of the open-market tents that fill the square during daylight hours.
Cathedral.
A United Nations monument to human rights. There are 30 pillars, one for each of the sections of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Each pillar has one of the sections written on it in German, and then written in the language of a people who have had their human rights violated. At the far end is a tree representing all the unlisted languages/peoples.
The arch at the head of the monument.
A "map" of the city in the underground shopping area beneath the train station.
Friends / travel companions on the train ride home. There were almost no empty seats, so most of us either stood or sat in the between-cars section of the train. It's quite a bit more bouncy there, but it makes the journey all the more exciting. :)
