There were many statues around the courtyard. The only two we really figured out were the statue of Frederick and of David with Goliath's head. As we exited, someone pointed out the spikes in the ceiling. Nice touch...

On the ride back, I noticed a sign in the bus where, in America, there would be some kind of beer or condom ad. As we traveled along, I noticed it changing. Turns out, it displays the bus line and the names of the next several stops. It updates as we travel along. For the most part the busses in Germany seem to be much better than the ones we have in America. Maybe that's because most of them are Mercedes...

Back at the train station, we had one last tripod picture before we got on the train. At our intermediate stop, someone noticed an uncharacteristically (for the Germans, anyway) inoperative clock. This lead us to wonder what time the trains would actually arrive ;-)

We made it back to Wiesbaden having thoroughly enjoyed our day, each other's company, and James's tripod. The end... ;-)
