Arnold and Newlin: Ulm and the Black Forest, May 1970

The first set of slides here are labeled Black Forest, where we stopped for a picnic. The second set are from Ulm, of Ulm Minster. The tour is getting close to the home of Hazel's German ancestors, who were Calvinist Protestants that emigrated to the Colony of Pennsylvania.

Arnold and Newlin: Denmark, May 1970

A second trip to Denmark in a month is a stopover on a longer journey down to southern (West) Germany. We take this trip when Hazel comes from Los Angeles and wishes to visit her ancestral German lands. We were happy to take her because she insisted on a higher class of hotel (and more expensive) than the family would normally splurge on) and for that reason she also paid our hotel bills. 

In Denmark we visit Frederiksborg in Hillerød, Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen, Hans Christian Andersen's house in Odense, and briefly Roskilde.
