My good friend Chandra Anderson came to visit during my spring break! It was so nice to have a friend from home here to wander around with! Our first trip was by train to see the village of Rudesheim which is a wine making town along the Rhine. We had a self guide tour of a wine museum in an old castle and then rode the gondola up to the Niederwald Monument and its statue of "Germania". I would imagine there is a very nice view from there on a sunny day. Later we had a very nice German meal at a local restaurant.
