Heidelberg

10 Uhr Mass at Jesuiten Kirche. Children’s choir, organ, alto recorder. Young soloist.
Presider was very comforting and engaging.
Recessional: organ only.
Hymn numbers projected on the wall when needed.

Dagmar and Martin met us to go to Speyer, on the Rhine River. It was COLD!. Foggy.
The cathedral is Gothic, amazing. Couldn’t sing there, music playing. Archdiocese offices were across the street.
We went in St. Joseph’s Church, a beautiful church with clean, spare lines. Beautiful. This would be a good place to sing with our choir someday.
Dagmar’s favorite church is the protestant church nearby with the statue of Martin Luther in front. (I can’t remember its name). It was closed for lunch time when we got there.
Fish soup for lunch.
Anna’s hockey.
Supper: leftovers and liver & rice & potato cakes & applesauce.
Philip had a flat tire. (Later we found out it was three. The tires were old, probably dry-rotted. )
