Travel Blogging I

Hamburg, Germany:  The DrsC are wandering again. We're in Hamburg on our way to an Elbe River cruise south in the general direction of Prague, although we won't get alll the way there by boat, the last leg is by bus.

Hamburg is an attractive city, not nearly as nasty looking as many old port cities have been. Count on the Germans to clean things up and make the buildings tidy and the streets clean. 

Germans even take showers more regularly than they once did, I was on the underground today and didn't smell BO even once.

The rest of the trip will be in the old East Germany, an area in which we've not traveled. That should be interesting. We get to see some storied places like Berlin, Potsdam, etc. 


Today we visited the world's largest toy train layout, it fills many rooms of an old warehouse. I expect eventually the other DrC will have pix on her website at cruztalker.blogspot.com.
