Today a bunch of us wandered around the Altstadt taking pictures and generally looking like the bunch of American tourists that we are. Here are some highlights:
Here we have the famous Regensburg Dom (cathedral). I believe that we are supposed to take a tour of it eventually. Apparently, it is undergoing long-term restoration - cleaning/replacing the stonework to remove the years of stains from pollution, etc. They've done a pretty good job so far.
This is the Kirche (church) in Neupfarrplatz, which is pretty close to the Dom. Regensburg has a ridiculous number of churches.
Here is Steinerne Bruecke (literally "stone bridge"), the same one that you see in the picture at the top of the page. It's a pedestrian-only bridge that dates back to the 1100's. Across the river there are a few really nice beer gardens that I want to check out when the weather gets nice.
This is a picture of the Donau (Danube) taken from Steinerne Bruecke.
Finally, this is a T-shirt I saw while window shopping. The store specialized in American hip-hop/gangster style clothing. I was kind of sad that they were closed.
