Hanging out in Darmstadt

Bit of a slow day after the wedding. We "escaped" about 2am, but the bride and groom and many others were still going until 4 or 6am... So we were looking pretty sprightly by comparison.

We spent the morning helping tidy up the venue before we headed back with Alina and Julien to their apartment in Darmstadt. Julien wasn't quite up to driving, so we took Alina's car back and got a little lost on the way - but Google got us there eventually.

On arrival we discovered some of Julien's friends had managed to get in and leave a surprise present - a bunch of empty bottles nicely laid out around the apartment (apparently a German tradition). When the door opened they were playing Julien and Alina's theme song from the wedding, so they did get a good laugh out of everyone before we all pitched in to tidy up.

We then headed into town to check out a street fair which was in town for the week, where we got some much needed street food. We returned to the apartment and blobbed out for the evening. Nathan and Alina got a good catch up in before the tiredness overtook us and it was time to rest it off.Meer informatie
