Hamburg!!!!!!!!





































So, not only did Kyle and i have an amazing time in Muenden, we also had the opporunity to travel to Hamburg for 3 days or so.

We left for Hamburg on the Jan 3rd. and arrived there around 3 in the afternoon. After an interesting adventure which included receiving false directions to our youth hostel, this resulting in a nice walk around Hamburg in the rain, we finally arrived and checked in. We dropped are stuff off and immediately set off into the city. After walking around for a little bit we found a little falafael (spelling??) and Doener resteraunt, which was excellent. The after walking around for another hour or so we found a cool little coffee shop right in the downtown area of Hamburg. After staying there for a while we decided to head back to the part of town where are youth hostel was. It was about 20 minutes by foot from the downtown area in Hamburg in a really cool funky part of town (or leftist as described by our guide book) We then realized that we were hungry again and began the search for somewhere to eat. We stumbled across this french type restaurant that served crepes and croques. So, we went in and ordered a Croque even though we didnt know what it was. Turns out its a sub sandwhich. It was excellent. After that we walked around a little more and found this cool Greek bar that was packed. We went in. Had a few drinks and then headed back to the youth hostel.

Jan 4: Woke up around and got going around 11. Purchased some excellent german baked goods for breakfast and the procedeed to walk through the city. Had the lunch on the go. You will see the picture below. Shopped. Walked some more. Went back to the youth hostel. slept a little. went out again. Walked to another part of the city called St. Pauli. and had excellent Indian food at this cool little indian resteraunt. Walked around some more trying to find a bar. didnt find any that looked welcoming so we walked back to the Greek bar and stayed there for a while.

Jan 5th: Woke up, walked into the city, got some breakfast and then walked to the Harbor because Hamburg sits right on the Elba river and is known for its shipping. Walked around the harbor and the downtown area. came back to the youth hostel, starting packing because Kyle had to leave early on the 6th. We then hung out at the youth hostel for a while and then walked to the University district, found a cool little Bistro that was absolutly packed and enjoyed a good meal and a great conversation.

Jan 6th: Woke up early, Kyle left for Spain and i left for Hann. Muenden.


Thanks Kyle for an amazing time. Love ya.
