    There are 5 faces in these clouds.
    (They are facing upwards. )

    Look closely and you will see them. I think one may be drinking a beer.

    PS: Yes, I am completely sober.

    Heidelberg is beautiful, have seen it as a child only, we stayed the night in Neckarsteinnach, Hotel Schwalbennest!! Wonder if it still exists. And is even near Heidelberg:-) Should always look in the net first and comment later, yes! Maybe next time.

    Well, we are trusting Gary and Ed to keep the wine.
    This is the lesser barrel (Kleines Fass) Built 1667 by Count Electorate Karl Ludwig with a content of 204 Fuder, 3 Ohm und 4 Viertel, that is about 195.000 Liter = 52'000 US gallons, don't confuse with Großes Fass, Germany's biggest (if not greatest) wine barrel. Both barrels are in the cellars of the Heidelberg castle.

    From 13th thru 18th Century the Castle was the recidence of the Count Electorate (they elected the German emperors) of the Palatine and went through a glourious and versatile history.

    THANKYOU STEIN!!! Thanks for adding the description to the Heidelberg Klienes Fass that I should have done!!! This adds so much to the picture!!! And the link is awesome... I will get back to that!!! Thanks Again Gary!!!

    Hi Gary,
    As you know I am stuck in Beirut, this poster is nothing compared to what I see and ear in the Arab world.
