Today is all about castles! This morning we visit the Marksburg castle, high on a hill above the town of Braubach. Built around the 12th century to defend the Rhein River, it is now restored and a pretty interesting museum. We toured the dining room, bed chambers, blacksmith shop and armory (see Matt below with a sword!).
Then we are back on the boat for an afternoon sail down the Rhein, passing scores of castles on both sides of the river. Finally the rain has stopped, making for a very pleasant afternoon on the sun deck snapping photos and relaxing.
