After Walhalla and the Ruins we finally made it into the city of Regensburg. It is a very old city which dates back to Roman Times. My camera was dying however so I did not get too many photos! It was a great city to stroll thru - and I don't think we saw it all, so we are definately planning a trip back.
Here are a few shots of the Stone bridge - this is the oldest stone bridge still standing in Germany dating back to around 1200. 
This is a shot of the oldest sausage making kitchen in Germany called the Wurstkuchen. They just put a new batch of sausages on to cook! It was standing room only outsides so we took our sausages and ate down by the river and stone bridge.
Can you tell we love our wursts!
More Stone Bridge. The water was moving pretty fast.
This was St. Peters in Regensburg. A beautful old church. We walked all in and around it. Wolfgang was very happy to see the Altar of St. Wolfgang in it! There was also an underground crypt where some bishops were buried.

Castle Ruins
After we visted Walhalla we went to explore some castle ruins close by. The Castle dated back to 1200s. There was charts at the bottom that showed it in various states of construction...Here are a few photos of the exploration.
Wolfgang putting on a show as usual.
Wolfgang thought that he could find some buried treasure and Jeff checking out what was the door hinges at one point.
This looked to be a wall the guards would have patrolled.
Sophie in a field of purple flowers.
A shot of Walhalla in the distance and the Danube.
This photo you can actually see thru the bottom window a boat on the Danube.

Last weekend the Amos Family headed to Regensburg, Germany and visited Walhalla the monument to great Germans.

Sarah and Jeff.
A tree on the walk up we thought looked like an ant-eater.
We opted for the walk up versus paying for parking - it was a fantastic day for a walk!
