Dude, I'm at the library, so I haven't had a chance to thoroughly look over these (ok, I just scrolled down), but I so envy you. I've been reading the Smalcaldt Articles, the Augsburg Confession, the Book of Concord, Luther's Larger and Smaller Catechisms...you are so fortunate. That altar that you took a photo of has famous Reformation art by Cranach (I think). I'm sure you know that, but that is AWESOME!

WOW . . . those are beautiful!  How awesome to be able to tour Wittenburg!!!  You must have spent hours upon hours in Mariankirche . . . how cool!  Will you make a scrapbook?  You really ought to while it is fresh in your mind.   It could be like a journal too?  Thank you for posting all these!  *dances around*

These pix are truly excellent! I missed Wittenberg on my trip due to lack of time, so am especially appreciative.
