Trier, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany
Saturday, August 30, 2008
Spent about 36 hours without sleep, Tan and I couldn't get to sleep on the plane (12 hours long) which was followed by another 2 hours drive from Frankfut to Trier courtesy of our friends the Fuchs and Tan's Mum, who's been on hols with them for a month now. Naturally our hosts cracked open champagne when we finally arrived, and drank those good german beers in the half litre glasses so it was 2am German time before we got ready for bed. Tan only got up 2 hours later as Nathan decided to wake up (I didn't hear anything...really) so she's shattered but we're assured a good nights sleep before exporing tomorrow. Once again Nathan was a legend on the flight albeit with a half hour at the end he got a bit fed up watching movies and playing games. The stewardesses fell in love with him, as did all the ladies around Singapore so he ws spoilt. Thoroughly recommend Singapore airlines, especially if you have kids they were fantastic.
Basically speaking haven't explored Trier just yet, nice and warm (25 degrees), hope to visit the Fuch's friends (they own a winery) so the organs are already busy processing the alcohol.
