Arriving on a Sunday is always a bit risky because most things are closed, and Dresden was no … -

Various Climaxes
Sunday morning, we hopped on the train to Dresden, which only takes from 60-90 minutes depending on how many stops you have to make. You've probably heard it before, but I'll just throw it out there again: Dresden is beautiful. It's almost TOO beautiful. You can't look anywhere without wanting to look everywhere.

Beer, beer, more beer, sausages and sauerkraut too
... and it was weird when you hear news of the war from the "other side"! It was unreal to see that the Frauenkirche (Church of Our Lady), which was pretty much completely destroyed, is still being rebuilt and is still not quite finished (although to ...

Dresden
When Attila's friend heard that we were going to Germany, he suggested that we visit Dresden. It was a logical stop, being half-way between Prague and Berlin, so we made reservations at a quirky hotel decorated in a Mexican theme. On the ...
