OK, German nit alert: Heidelberg is in Baden Württemberg. But you'll probably will not notice any difference.

Tythe, I think the problem is that you are in Northern Germany. The people are more uptight there than in the South. And there are less sites to visit. I'd suggest Hamburg or Köln/Düsseldorf. If you visit the Kölner Dom (Cathedral), go around until you see the "Dombauhütte". Go in there and pretend that you do rock carving/modelling (don't know how you call that in English) in the states and that you would like them to take you up to the roof to have a look at the Gothic statues. I don't know if they fall for this, but I was up there with them and it was one of the most exciting things I've ever done. You can look from the top right down to the altar, see all the amazing statues they've put up there over time. They even have one Hippiesque figure that smokes pot!
