Hamburg Ala Gants

BubbleShare: Share photos - Play some Online Games.


First i went to Berlin. It was impressive, but the Stassi of the GDR confiscated my film, so there are no photos of the communistic splendor.

Then i went to Hamburg to visit the illustrious Mark Gants and his girlfriend Anja. A highlight was when we investigated the Reeperbahn. This was important research, as i needed to answer the questions that everyone back home in Manila wants to know.

Q: Can the Reeperbahn really be dirtier than Manila's red light district of Burgos St?
A: No

Q: Is it bigger than Burgos?
A: Yes.

So big in fact, that we partied all night there. Then at about 6 am, everyone starts shuffling like zombies downhill to the harbour, for the famous Sunday Fish Market. It is like a slow motion parade. And do the zombies want fish? No way. There is live music, coffee, pastries, and of course, more booze. Like good zombies, we partook of everything.

One of my other favorite activities was when the three of us canoed through the canals of Hamburg. It was like a high class version of an Ozark, Missouri float trip. I saw and did much more, but i have no more time to write. i must rest.

Because.....tomorrow i visit those bicycle riding, sub-sea-level dwelling, windmill building people known as the Dutch. Who live in Holland. Also called the Netherlands. Which has confused American school children for years.
