Highline 178 and Erinburg Castle (Germany) 6/26/16

Highline 178 and Erinburg castle

Daddy found this extremely insane longest suspension bridge in the world! When daddy showed me a youtube video of this bridge before we arrived here, I told him NO WAY was I going to let you boys walk on that bridge. I adamantly told daddy that you boys and I would stay in the car while Daddy and sissy crossed the bridge themselves. Of course, daddy talked me into it and we all braved the bridge! Initially we were all scared!!!! It was VERY windy and foggy this day. Daddy even tried to shake the bridge to give us an extra scare! We were all holding onto each other very tightly especially Jace and Sissy! We wanted to just run to the other side but it was a VERY LONG bridge to get through. Half way through we started to enjoy the view and even the height of our adventure! It was very scary and amazing to see the highway beneath us as we walked. Once we reached the end, we were all so happy and actually ran as we got close to the end ;p However, we knew we had to walk the entire way back AGAIN! By this time, Jace was very brave and was even bragging about how fun it was to Jenna. Despite the wind, fog, and cool weather we greatly enjoyed this once in a lifetime suspension bridge challenge ;) 

To top of this great accomplishment for us, we had to make sure to "look" for Jace's treasure from the ghost at Erinburg castle. The castle ruins were truly untouched and kept all its original structure. It was getting too cold for mommy and Jordy so we weren't as encouraged as daddy, Jace and Jenna to tour the castle in its entirety. However, we still posed for our usual castle family pics and looked at Jace's treasure map from the ghost and had him find his treasure. Jace was too excited and immediately ran too quickly to find his treasure and took a great fall AND on camera :( After a great pep talk and reassuring words from daddy, Jace continued his treasure hunt and successfully found his treasure :) 

We were all so glad that daddy convinced/forced us to go on this great adventure today! ;p
