Sausages and Beer.

We were so eager to get on the road and start our roadtrip! The first stop was only a couple of hours away from Rotterdam, recommended by Toon and Jannetje: the Rodelbahn!

Excited about the Rodelbahn ride. 

Scared or excited?

Making our way to Hamburg.



Façade of Brahms Kontor, where our host Sina works. She was an amazing host and showed us all the highlights of the city.

The beautifully tiled stairs of the Brahms Kontor (Hamburg).

 Heiligengeistfeld Flakturm IV bunker. Some wiki info:

G-Tower was transformed into a nightclub with a music school and music shops. 53.556212°N 9.970104°E.This tower, containing six levels below the rooftop, includes in its design, as part of its air-raid shelter, two identical spaces for protection against gas attacks, one on the first floor (above ground level) and the other on the second floor. Both in Tower 1, they are about 300 sq. m. (3,230 sq. ft.) in area, and have six windows (openings in the wall).

We told Sina we wanted sausages and beer and that's what we got. 

Currywurst!

Sina taking her role as a city guide very seriously. 

One of the things I felt jealous about of Hamburg (vs. Rotterdam) was the amount of people that were outside, using public spaces, also in less residencial areas. It made the city feel more full of life and safer. 

We ended the tour on this beach with amazing views. 

Sina had one of my prints and this Pothead on her wall! 

Tommi in Sina's and his place. 

Enjoying a sofa with Marijke before not having access to one for the following 8 or 9 days.

Thank you Sina, it was great to see you and catch up after all this time!
