The day started with a 10am breakfast and then the remaining beers.
Frustratingly the car share guy to Nurburg never emailed me back so I was left to take the train. But overall it would have cost me ~150€ to get to Munich. There must have been another way. Eventually I found it, a car share Hamburg to Munich. Over 100€ saving but I would have to let The Breezes down and miss out on homemade Tirumisu. It's crazy, I booked 2 flights and a ferry totalling less than that train. German trains must be the most expensive in Europe!
Dan and I spoke solar, he gave me some useful info to take away and think about. So it was time for some sightseeing and some removals in Hamburg catching the 14:30 train. Anne decided to join us.
Unfortunately we arrived 5 mins late at the station missing our train. To kill time we sat in McD's waiting for the next train at 15:30. Here Anne flavoured my drab coffee with Diam McFlurry, much improvement.
Once on the train we discussed how our lateness would impact helping Mary moving a dresser and fitting in sight seeing. Daniel kindly offered to leave Anne and I to wonder the city while he quickly assisted Mary.
We headed straight to the park taking random photos. Playing with the water jets and wooden animals. But we never saw anything that looked remotely like a Japanese Garden. We ended up outside the 'World of Sex' after departing the Park. Somehow 3 hrs had passed and we decided to see what happened to Daniel and Mary.
We all met up, bought some salmon, rice and a range of beers. After some laughs it was time for Daniel & Anne to catch the last train back at 00:15. But the good times rolled on too much as they missed their train. Thankfully they were both happy to stay till the next train at 05:15. But party we would have to as beds were limited. It was not long till I enjoyed some of the best kissing I can remember. I was trying to resist as I didn't want to Alienate the others, but those lips were just lush.
We wondered round the wierd and wonderful parts of Hamburg till Mary and Anne needed a rest. So Daniel and I wondered round and got lost. I'm not sure if he ever made the 05:15 with a tired looking Anne, but I'm sure he was running late.
I was left with a wonderful memory of kissing Anne. But damn it was hard to get only 2.5 hrs sleep before catching the car share at 08:00.
