Hamburg, Germany

Slept in later than we thought. Had breakfast and headed into Hamburg proper. The taxi line was really, really long but moved quickly. Driver must have had somewhere to get to as he drove like a bat outta hell.

Today was the second of two days celebrating German Unity Day and the fall of the Berlin Wall. Almost all of downtown was closed off to traffic. We saw lots of booths for other areas of Germany and lots of demonstrations.

I managed to get us lost and it started raining. But we made it back safely to the boat around 3pm. Again the line to get back on the ship was long, long, long…but moved quickly.

This evening’s show is Jeremy the Entertainer. He’s a juggler/comedian/musician and was pretty awesome to watch.Read more
