Good: Had a lovely weekend. We had a "summer museum night", which meant museums and galleries were open till late late hours. And the entrance was free. We went to see a couple.
Good: In front of one of them a living history group was presenting the Celtic life. That included a soldier with such a short leather fetish skirt that I'm wondering if he's for real :D
Good: Than a Sunday trip to a valley not far by.
Good/bad: Temperatures rose drastically. It's fun for now but it will get too hot soon.
One beer to rule them all.
One whiskey to find them.
One vodka to bring them all
and in the drunkness bind them!

Bad: Thanks to thrombosis, the temperatures outside and my job which implies sitting all day, my other leg developed a vene-insufficientcy which means it doesn't pump the blood through there fast enough. THAT means I now have to go and buy another pair of elastic stockings for that leg, which will cost a load of money...AGAIN! Apparently Mr. Body thinks it's not enough that I ride my fucking bike all the time and do sports three or four times a week. I FUCKING hate it!!!

Sorry to hear about your health brother. Maybe this weekend will help your legs circulate a little better. If not, I can carry you around Leipzig and use your handicap to attract sympathetic Damen. ;)

Good: Got to Hermannsdenkmal yesterday but the actual battlesite of Varusschlacht at Kalkriese was a bit further away than expected. Went to Bielefeld instead and checked out Sparrenburg Castle. Not a huge one, but my first and was still cool.
Good: Today was some more time in Muenster and a cool history museum.
Good: Tomorrow to Dortmund to see my cousin

It's great to read someone's travelling diary. Hope you'll be updating it in Thailand too. I might sign up for the page to comment. Or I'll just bug you occasionally in private :)

Good: Warm weather. Although it has it's bad side: I have to sleep with an open window, which means I am woken up quite early in the morning by light of dawn and by birds making noise in the trees outside.
Bad: It's not the most pleasant experience being outside between 11 am and 18 pm. Hot hot hot. Although the temperatures dropped a bit today.
Good: Last year in Oslo a friend from another forum took me around for one afternoon. Now she is planning to hitch-hike through Europe and seems she'll be coming here too. She's originally from Oregon, but living in Norway and Poland. Great, I like being a travel guide :D
Good: Prolonged weekend (Monday is our national holiday) so we can go someplace.

Good: Spent two days in North Hungary in a team building training. It was fun except for the stupid games. There was a swimming pool, so I was swimming my head off, it's pretty good for my back. The food was excellent and we had tons of drinks.

Bad: A friend just hurt himself badly when we were playing Volleyball. Was taken to the hospital by some other friends. :-/
Good: Semi-finale next Thursday!

Thanks. I will definitely be updating it. I am also keeping a more personal/hand written diary. It is the first time I have done so, and I figured that my travels would be the best thing to start with. You can bug all you want, I will just bug you back. ;)

Aldhissla: I hope your friend is alright.

Good: Yes, damn fine weekend in Leipzig, great host, and the weather was great.
Bad: I only know 1 member of the trollboard personally... :evil:
Good: This will change in the near future for sure.
Good/Bad: Good because I am leaving for Thailand to start new adventures and a real job finally. Bad because I am going to miss the hell out of Germany.
