Day 18

Today was a day to relax. We checked out of the InterCity Hotel somewhat late in the morning. I needed some internet time, so we went downtown to the Hauptbahnhof (the main train station) because Knuckles said they had a Starbucks, and everyone KNOWS Starbucks has internet...well, when we got there, they had a whopping 4 round tables set outside of the "shop" which was nothing more than just a small bar-looking thing. Not like the S-bucks you see in the states. So, we tried to find somewhere with an internet connection and ended up at MickieD's. We quickly found a nice hotel online that had internet access! WOO HOO...four days being disconnected from the world sure can take a toll.

Here's the TV as I entered my room:











I thought that was a kind reception! I figured that using my real last name, Luciano, might give my identity away, so I used some alias that sounded "American." How did I do?

The rest of the day was pretty much maxin' and relaxin' in the comfort of air conditioning for the first time on the trip...it was worth it too. A pretty uneventful day, sorry.

Cheers,
