So Saturday I spent the most of the driving around downtown Hamburg. Walked around the streets and shops - didn't buy anything simply because I have no space to carry it. We visited a museum with a Rubens, van Dyck, Jordaens exhibit. It was pretty cool, I like noticing things in paintings that my art professor talked about. I'm sure I learned about these guys at some point too, but my memory on names is shit.
We also went to the Rathaus just for the hell of it and check out the "family day" - which is mainly meant for little kids. I also finally got my phone loaded again... after like three attempts and many misunderstandings. At least now I know what to and what to ask for. Hell, I almost bought myself a new phone number because of this complication.
At night, hit up the hookah bar. It wasn't too pricey for the shisha itself, but the drinks were. I paid 2 Euro for a simple cup of tea, but damn was it yummy.
Yesterday, went to the Hamburg Hafencity. Nothing too special, the weather was shit and prevented some serious boating/sailing. Drrr, Deutschland.. Afterwards, I went to the two apartments I lived in while I was in Germany as a little kid. In some ways, the apartments were the same in my memory. In others, I felt like there should have been a hill added or an expanded street. I was however, able to be like "hey, I looked out that window" or "hey my cat used to sit right there".
I was then treated to some dinner and wine... mmm tomato soup and bread.
