Ferienpark Schneverdingen

... erg oneconomisch om tussendoor even de oven aan te laten staan. De dag daarop was de Oude Man dan weer boos, omdat we de afzuigkap hadden gebruikt, nadat de oven het hele huis blauw had gezet (een half uurtje het raam open is veel beter, en stinkt ook totaaaaal niet(!)). Ben ik blij dat ik morgen wegga! Angie is vast veel liever voor me! Jocelyn wilde nog graag afscheid nemen, dus gisteren zijn we eerst in de stad ...

... on a street called Arneburger Strasse. Arnie-Burger - good eh? Also I saw a sign for a builder or Baumeister, whose surname was Schitthelm. Thank goodness he doesn't try to do trade in the UK. A bit like a British Mr Fick trying to live in Germany - look it up in a good dictionary. Other smaller places well worth another visit were Stapen (not even on my atlas) and Apenburg. This place had one shop, one school, and rows of fabulous biscuit-tin houses. That is not to say, of ...

... hatte doch ziemlich Angst! Naja, Spaß hatte ich auch (Siehe Bild). Es gibt viele tolle Attraktionen unter anderem auch richtig gute Tiershows mit Tieren, die sich merklich wohlfühlen. Es war ein toller Tag, aber Caro als "Freizeitparkexpertin" war nicht ganz von dem Heidepark überzeugt :-)

... extra inner tubes. The rest of my ride was mostly uneventful, and the sceneries I've seen would have to be experienced in person. Crossing the Elbe was a big moment, made more so by the heavy shower of rain that lasted for only 20 minutes. But it was more than enough for me to refrain from stopping and digging out my camera. I've had another rainy day, but warmer and not quite as wet as yesterday. But it wasn't until I reached the ...

... visited museums, a community volunteer agency and a newspaper to name a few. The weather has been really cold, which is its usual state. Today we are off the Frankfurt, stopping on the biggest art fair in the world. The German people have been very friendly and it is easy to get around. Mike will be here in 3 days - yeah! More later

Here we stayed for a few days to rest at a family campground where everyone seemed surprised that we came such a long way from Canada and that my last name has a german meaning. There was a pond (lake-ish water) with ducks and I went swimming once. We played a lot of chess and some guitar, etc. When the the local shops (three bakeries ...

The Hurricane festival started on fri 22.6 and ended on sun 24.6 We arrived a day before the festival. The weather was quite rainy but the festival was nicely orginized and we saw som great bands, during theese tre days. Some of my friends also arrived on friday and joined in on the fun :) the Pix speak for them selves...

A visit to hamburg is not complete without going to the local kiosk store and picking up half litre beers for a €1.20 a piece. I think this could be another place of debauchary and fun. We arrived in Hamburg and took the underground to a hostel to spend the night. It was a very nice hostel and on the 5th floor so we got an excellent view of other people's roofs. We took a self guided, half lost walking ...

... Hamburg where I will now be hitchhiking. They are off to Amsterdam and then back to London. After a tense hour of no rides I managed to get picked up by the worst car on the road that day. The young guy driving didn't speak a lot of english seemed to think I was pretty crazy travelling around. After only 1km we got stuck in a massive traffic jam. An hour after that he dropped me off at a campsite so I ...
