Burgschenke Castle

BURGSCHENKE CASTLE IN NEULEININGEN GERMANY Andrew and i finally made it to the Burgschenke castle here in Germany in the city of Neuleiningen ya try to say that name i already forgot how. We actually noticed this castle on the autobahn last year. It's on your way to Frankfurt and every time we head up that direction we just never make an effort to stop there, which it was well worth it!!! There is also a restaraunt inside the castle! Andrew and i still love to see the castles here in Europe as many as we've seen you would think we would be sick of them, but they are all so different which makes it FUN! This castle looked pretty old. (Notice how extra tall Andrew looks, ya he was totally standing on a little hill so i look even shorter ha ha.) This is the road we walked up to get to the castle, you can see part of the castle wall right in the city in between some houses! This was the craziest castle we've seen so far but very interesting! The castle was in the middle of the city which was random, but hey you never know where you'll find a CASTLE here in Germany! Once we walked out to the ledge on the front side of the castle the view of the city was amazing. We didn't think we were that high above the city until we saw the view, it's crazy how all the castle are built to overlook the city/town. Andrew enjoying the view and lovin the CASTLE........ So I decided to sit down on the grass and i totally sat in some water which the grass wasn't even wet except for the spot where i sat. Anyways andrew thought it was pretty funny so he just had to snap a picture.!!! I couldn't stop laughing! This is inside of the castle, mostly just a big open area. Andrew surprised me with a kiss but hey it was pretty exciting being in a castle and all ha ha. Love ya babe
