Wallauer Hof Hotel Hofheim Hofheim am Taunus

... facilities.
I'll know where I'm going instinctively.
Like a thief who must know every corner, every air duct, every hallway, every locked door, every personnel station, every inch of possible ground to be learned via online airport mapping systems.
This is how I will wake up and move myself onward.
From a drunk and Valium based slumber I will awake in Germany, a country which I have never visited nor ...

Short entry this time....

Only here for one night. Got to the hotel saw a couple of shops with beersteins, birkenstocks and clocks. Had dinner and watched some feral women proceed to get ****** and act like idiots in the hotel bar. Some good news though, won 30 euro on the slot machine in the hotel.

One of the guys (we assume it was a guy) even peed in the hotel hallway and our Tour Manager had to clean it up. People can be such animals.

Again it seems to be an escape from the inevitable. But somehow I actually think it's way more than that.

Why do I think that? I'm sure you are wondering what special thing happened at the end of my last entry in the first world trip ...

Wow St Goar seriously looks like a very typical little German town, it's hard to describe why but when you just look at the little houses you know your in Germany.
Went to wine tasting last night coz the Rhine Valley produces sweet reslings and i like sweet wines but even i was like dude this is hurting my jaw LoL...
kinda wish i was a mum right now coz it seems like we stop for a second and Kylie ...

... their walls, not to mention some German candies.

Unfortunately it was time to call it a trip, so we all piled in the car and Flo kindly drove us home on the ultra-efficient Autobahn where nobody drives slowly in the left lane.

Auf wiedersehen! It was a great trip!

Ein Pflichttermin in Hofheim am Taunus. Die weltgrößten Schnitzel rufen. Angekommen im Waldgeist haben wir uns gleich die riesen Teile bestellt: Caroline ein Schnitzel aus dem Fleisch von einem halben Schwein, ich konnte es nicht lassen und habe ein ganzes genommen. Das größte Schnitzel das man bestellen kann wiegt 2,25 kg und wurde bis jetzt erst einmal komplett verzehrt ...

... a couple more things before going to bed. My last night in Essen.
Sunday I woke up and finalised my packing. I called Rafael's room just incase he wanted to come too, but he was not feeling too well. I went to say good-bye and just managed to catch the tram with Annabel. The train ride to Cologne was PACKED with people in costume, and most of them were drinking on the way there. Somehow on the train my mobile phone disappeared. It could have been ...

... with some cappucino before our next flight. Business class to India was not quite as nice, but still good. We were still able to stretch out and back mostly, and they kept on feeding us! I think we ate once every 5 hours for the whole trip. We left Germany at 1:55am, and were served lunch and dinner on the flight (between which I slept). I had a traditional Indian dish for dinner called... well I can't remember now, but I'll fill it in later. It was good. One thing about ...

... the "hills alive with music" in Oz so we can cash in too)!!! Anyway, even though we weren't given all that long inside it was ok because there's only so much elbow sharpening one can do (we have found that a lot of people in Germany aren't into queuing or waiting their turn for anything and a few choice words have been spoken on more than one occasion)! But apart from that ... the castles were worth the visit and the hour long walk up a steep hill was much needed exercise ...

I've been in Frankfurt several times, mostly checking out the gift show in my capacity as a trade show geek in general, promoter of my frog line in particular. So I know the town a bit. But this time we merely pass through, in the middle of the night, right through the center ...
