Fora Hannover

So I can't really remember much about Hannover besides that there was nothing to see, nothing to do, the weather was bad and the campsite was overpriced! Dont get me wrong, I'm sure its a lovely place with nice weather and during the summer when the gardens are open which is where Hanovers charm is supposed to be. Wasn't our cup of tea so we moved on rather quickly. Byebye Hanover....maybe next time!

... of the building. This was because we were basically going up the outside of the dome which was curved. It was also scary because only 6 people could fit at a time and you could look up or down it. Then there were a few stairs to climb before seeing the view of the city. It was a nice view but the weather made the sky very gray.

After riding back down in the elevator we walked around the back of the building to check out the lake and park. Then we ...

... and the other passenger banged away at his computer as he has a meeting in Paris today. The train chugged along quite fast...something like 180miles an hour at one point, we stopped at Lille and people got off...and no one else much got on. So the carriage was even emptier. Dan fiddled around on the computer transferring all the photos to the hard drive, I had a snooze...and we continued on to Paris.
The train arrived at half past 12 Paris time, we had got to Paris ...

... since I had so little sleep and just trying to not fall over. We packed into a normal sized bus but had to load a lot of the luggage on the inside of the bus. Then we drove the 50 minutes on the Autobahn to Braunshweig!! We couldn't go too fast since the bus is not a Mercedes, Porsche, Volkswagon, BMW or any of the other nice German manufactured cars.

... What I find is extraordinary is that one car has pulled away from its' parking spot and driven all of 40 yards to public lavatories. Once relieved, the lad walked 5 paces back to his car, started it up and re-parked in his original position.

Last night wasn't too bad. A lot of screeching around in their cars and a visit around 3.00am by one who tried to leave most of his tyre rubber on the asphalt.

... km after setting out

The hotel is fabulous (gotta love booking via the net!) and right on the town square reconstucted after the town centre was bombed flat in 1945. Pics will be great.

Hildesheim is the birthplace of my Great Grandfather ( dad's mum's dad) so it's a special place to visit for us.

Now grabbing pizza and trying to find WiFi we can hijack.

Arrived at Hannover right on time, nice medium size airport but even so the bags were on the carousel by the time we were through immigration, brilliant!

A quick toilet stop us like kids us older folk have to grab the opportunities when the arise, the out into the concourse to find the transfer driver holding up his Autostadt board.

After sorting out confusion about the wrong name and the wrong number of people with little German on my part and about ...

... was going on and all but I don't want them to ask me stuff and having to respond in English. Usually in exhibitions like these, when there are tons of people at one spot you know something good is going on. Same for CeBIT. I grabbed a bunch of bags and there was this one spot with two topless girls advertising for some mobile/ cell phone company. It is definitely PG-13 material. After looking at all the computer stuff I decided to head back to downtown to get food, since I was ...
