We stopped at Ulm, where Papa spoke out against the Gothic architecture and the half-timbered houses. He said they were dreadful, old-fashioned and tastelessly built. He much preferred symmetry. I didn't mind the fancy cuticles of the cathedrals. They reminded me of a land of fantasy. I didn't believe heaven would be symmetrical and ordered. Nature was too full of caprice to make heaven anything but.
