Memories...



This castle is the Youth Hostel of the Rhine-City Bacharach, it is called "Burg Stahleck".
When I was a teenager I spent a night here with my church youth group and when my oldest son was in first grade we spent a night there with his class (and I was a chaperone) Isn't it amazing? I remember it was a lot of fun to 'live' in a castle.
Hier kommen Erinnerungen auf!
Das ist die Burg Stahleck, die Jugendherberge von Bacharach am Rhein.
Als Teenager war ich hier eine Nacht mit unserer Frohschar-Gruppe und als mein aeltester Sohn in der ersten Klasse war kam ich mit als Begleitperson, auch fuer eine Nacht. Es war super, mal auf einer Burg zu 'wohnen'. Ist das nicht toll?

What a beautiful sight! I think you should put some of these beautiful photos in your new restaurant. I thought of that when these photos took my breath away this morning.... I am enjoying all of your "memories."
:)

Yes, Amy, that is the plan! We will print a few of those pictures and frame them for 'Rhineblick - German Restaurant' ...
Maybe we will see each other then?!
;-)
It is nice to stay in touch like this at least! I always appreciate your comments. Thank you, little sis.

Oh Gudl: "A night in a Castle" What a title for a story.

How fun it must have been to visit it again.

How lucky that such a beautiful place is open as a Youth Hostel and not as an expensive hotel for only the rich. Wow.
These photos would make for a beautiful mural for your restaurant if enlarged.
