HEIDELBERG, September 18~19, 2009 Friday September 18th 2009 By Ineke
Ruud and I traveled about seven hours by tram, train and taxi from our home in The Hague, the Netherlands, to our hotel in Heidelberg, Germany (in the district of Baden). We passed through Cologne, where we'll attend the New Years concert on January 1st 2010. We had to change trains three times, but the German High Speed Trains are very comfortable, so it was a joy to travel with beautiful sunny Autumn weather and beautiful landscapes outside.
We arrived in Heidelberg just in time to attend the sound check at 5 pm ..................Click on the link below to read Ineke's Full account of the Heidelberg Concerts and see all her photos!! ►Ineke and Ruud at The Heidelberg Concerts
Lucky, lucky, you, Ineke and Ruud. I am so jealous!!
ReplyDeleteMy Michigan son works for a German company and goes over for a week or so most every month. Was planning to go on Saturday, but changed plans to early October. Hope he can pick up a concert during one of his trips. (He always comes back with fantastic chocolates from a variety of companies and we judge which we like best!!)
Your review was out of this world, Ineke, and your wonderful pictures, too.
Another huge thank-you for all you do for us.

Wondeful stories and pictures of the Heidelberg concerts. Yesterday I came home turned on two Andre Rieu DVD's for relaxation, afterwards I just meditated a moment feeling such gratitude for the love of music and life this man shares with his audience. Not just music, but the essence of joy in life behind his music. Some folks catch on fast and some need to be prompted a little. Thanks for the photos and stories.

Wonderful story & pictures, Ineke. It's beautiful there. By the looks of the pictures on his web site, it looks like Andre has some nice local filming to go along with the DVD.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sue for the posting
ReplyDeleteNice photos. But you forgot to mention Carla Maffioletti with Juliska... That was great!!!
