Today is May 1st, a legal holiday in Mexico... "Día del Trabajo" or Labor Day. As is my custom on the first day of the month, I will show you the photo that I selected for for my custom-made calendar. This year's calendar features pictures that I have taken on my trips to Germany, and May's photo is of Heidelburg Castle.
On a hill, overlooking the picturesque university town of Heidelberg, are the remains of a castle. It was begun in the 13th century and was expanded numerous times. It eventually included a palace that was considered one of the most outstanding Renaissance structures north of the Alps. It was largely destroyed in wars during the 17th century, and still stands in ruins.
