Today we toured Wurzburg, another neat city with lots of colorful shops and crowds of people shopping. Our cities are quite boring in comparison. The big tour this AM was the palace of the "prince-bishop". The PB was a creation in the 13th century by Friedrich II. This made the bishop not only the religious ruler but also the secular ruler as well. Not very Presbyterian! When you see the opulence of the palace, you understand that the PB thought he was next to God, if not God herself! Unfortunately we were not allowed to take pictures inside the palace. We took buses to the palace, but then Lucy and I walked back to the ship via the town center. A lover of Dollar Stores back home, Lucy was amused to find a Euro Store!
