Europe trip

June 16th we left for Europe. Luckily the volcano in Iceland behaved itself and didn't cause us any problem getting to Frankfurt, Germany. Immediately upon arrival at Frankfurt we headed to Wurzberg. Germany by train. We had Eur-rail pass which gave us prepaid travel for 21 days in first class accomodations. I will cover the trip a little at a time.
