  • Day 48

    A Day in D'Dorf

    July 7, 2023 in Germany ⋅ ☀️ 28 °C

    Today we got up and decided to head to Aldi to see what we could grab for breakfast. We found all my favourite foods and there was a massive range of pastries to choose from. We got 2 each and headed back to the apartment. We then headed to a river cruise along the Rhine. We got a nice seat on the top level, it was a beautiful day. The cruise was only an hour but we got to see some of the city and Erin got a beer.
    We then visited tourist information to see if there were any must see spots. We got some old school maps and headed back to make our own plan. We headed towards the art gallery K21. It was an interesting experience... There was potentially more security guards than art work and majority of the work was different. There were a few really good exhibits but some were very weird including animations of people crying, drawings that looked like they were done by 5 year olds and photos of mountains. Please see the video of my favourite art piece though. We also went into a paid exhibition accidentally which was the one we enjoyed most ironically.
    Next we walked to the parliament building and past these cool apartment buildings. We stopped for lunch and Erin had the worlds biggest schnitzel. We then walked along the Rhine promenade and saw where they were doing the pole vaulting. Back in the main town the 3x3 basketball tournament had started so we watched one of those games.
    We went back to the accommodation, got changed and headed back out. Erin took me on her own version of a free walking tour and we saw some lovely buildings. She even bought me a beer as you are allowed to open carry here. We found a nice seat overlooking the Rhine and had a beer. We then watched another basketball game while enjoying a beer. The quality of the competition was really good. The amount of people who had embraced the free merch from IMG was incredible, everyone in orange bucket hats or fedoras.
    Next stop was a bar we'd seen earlier which had 2 for 1 cocktails. We had a watermelon cocktail and then a pina colada. They were both very good. Then we had a 1€ shot because yolo.
    We grabbed another beer and sat down to watch a few more games before going for a late snack dinner as we were so full still.
    We had a pretzel and spinach bread dumplings which were delicious. We headed home after this, it was 30 degrees and had been a big walking day!

  • Day 76

    Stellplatz am Rhein 🚤⚓️🚐🌞

    April 2 in Germany ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C

    Es geht ein ganzes Stück nördlich in den Ort Zons. Der Womoparkplatz ist okay und hatten am gestrigen Nachmittag eine nette Unterhaltung am Womo, über und mit dem Womo.
    Später gehen wir noch eine Runde am Deich entlang und genießen die Aussicht.
    Wir bleiben einen weiteren Tag und werden uns morgen die kleine Altstadt anschauen.

    Die ehemalige kurkölnische Zollfeste Zons, von Erzbischof Friedrich III. von Saarwerden im 14. Jahrhundert gegründet, gilt in ihrem hervorragenden Erhaltungszustand als einzigartiges Beispiel einer befestigten mittelalterlichen Stadt im Rheinland. Besonders sehenswert ist der mächtige Rheinturm aus dem Jahre 1388. Aber auch der Juddeturm mit seiner barocken Haube und die Windmühle mit ihrem noch originalen hölzernen Mahlwerk aus dem 17. Jahrhundert sind neben dem Rheinanlegeplatz und den Stadtmauern beliebte Fotomotive. Seiner historischen Bedeutung gerecht, spielt das „rheinische Rothenburg“ heute eine wichtige Rolle im kulturellen Leben des Rhein-Kreises Neuss.

    Eh, sem ime firme pozabil, ampak Tomaža pa ne. Sva se srečala že na Brniku, čakajoč na prvi let v Frankfurt.

    Bivša sodelavca iz Cablexa, zdaj oba na poti v Düsseldorf, on s svojimi droni v halo 1, jaz s svojimi kolegi v halo 9.

    Cool firma je, lasten razvoj iz Medvod, zdaj že nekaj let proizvajajo tele letalce v Tržiču in jih prodajajo po svetu. Več pa ob kakem klepetu.

    Ratinger Alt

    February 20 in Germany ⋅ ☁️ 10 °C

    Fertik deu, konec tridnevnega sejma. Zdaj še na zadnjo večerjo v lokalno pivnico.

    Ta regija je znana po pivu Alt, sveže temno pivo. Vsako mestece ima svojo verzijo, torej v Ratingerju imajo Ratinger Alt in tako naprej... Pije se ga po 2 dcl, da ostaja hladen in svež. Kelner sam nosi nove polne kozarčke in jemlje prazne z mize, vse dokler ne povezneš kartončka čez prazen kozarec. Hecno in zelo praktično.Read more

    Abschied von Fuseta

    October 4, 2024 in Germany ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C

    Heute fliegen wir zurück nach Deutschland. Wieder mit ein bisschen Wehmut, da die beiden Wochen Auszeit einfach schön und chillig waren.
    Abgesehen von der stoppeligen S-Bahn Fahrt verlief die Rückreise problemlos und flott.
    Zuhause wurden wir mit einem tollen Racelette-Abend empfangen, der uns über das schlechte Kölner Wetter hinweggetröstet hat.
    Der Vollständigkeit halber soll erwähnt sein, dass das Event nicht für uns, sondern von den Geschwistern nachträglich zu Max Geburtstag ausgerichtet wurde 😉.

  • Day 89–90

    Dusseldorf

    September 11, 2024 in Germany ⋅ ⛅ 14 °C

    📌 A short detour via Dusseldorf for one night as it was close to Cologne and it was one of their rivals, plus they also brewed their own beer. We were staying right in town but stupid me booked a room that had single beds, assuming they would just join them like the rest of Europe usually had done before. This was not possible as there was a small wall in between, luckily it was only one night so Chloe didn't kill me ☺️

    📌 We wandered around the docks/river area known for its modern architectural art buildings, we tried some of the Altbier which we decided was second to Kolsch as it was darker and not as smooth and we then visited the famous little Tokyo area. I guess being so far from Asia, Asian food is more difficult to come by and this area was super busy, all in all though, we enjoyed ramen and some dessert. Dusseldorf was a worthy side trip and a nice comparison to Cologne.
