Here are a few pictures. I really haven't taken that many. Poor lighting, lack of desire to look like a tourist, and intent not to overdo the picture-taking are responsible. Perhaps these will suffice for the time being.
My dorm. I live on the second (Americanly-defined) floor. Our kitchen has a balcony (center), with vines and sunflowers.
The Ryck river, as it runs through the harbor at Wieck.
A few of the several wood carvings around the bay. Makes me think of Nantucket, Coleridge, and Moby-Dick, though I've no logical support for those associations--other than the water.
Das Rathaus. "City hall." Hearing it called that annoys me, and I have no idea why. Maybe it's because I can still hear the recorded female voice from the Heidelberg bus system saying it in my head. Like "Marktplatz," "Hauptbahnhof," and "Dom," it's just one of those things I prefer to leave untranslated.

That looks like a very pretty/interesting place! More pictures please! (Perhaps on facebook?)
