"Please tell me everything..."
Time to leave Amsterdam and again we managed to miss the train! Dammit! Dias, Will and my self had to chill at the traino for an hour. Eventually we got moving and the trains where also now delayed. After and epic journey where we some how made all connections we arrived in Hamburg only the initial hour late. A beer and fee later we crashed pretty hard but had plans to make the next day quite busy.
Walking tour straight up. The city has lots of old building which have all had to be rebuilt in some way after the great fire here and the bombings in WW2. So things looking 100's of years old are bearly 50 years old. Still amazing. But on the other side of the dock it all changes and it's full of super modern buildings! It's mostly still under construction but looks great already. After the walking tour we double back for lunch to a spot the guide recommended and to ride a Panacoaster! Firstly the Panacoaster. It's basically a lift that doesn't stop moving. You just jump on as it passes your floor and jump off when you need. OH&S nightmare but so cool! It just runs in a circle all day. We left the new toy after all riding the full loop on the quest for a late lunch. We found a place called fire starter. The first restaurant in town and the place where you guess it the great fire started. The best service ever. The owner explained the entire German menu in english to us. The showed us photos of the building and a history on her family owning it. But then the food was as good if not better than that. I had some local fish cooked in some local sauce and wow. Everybody's meals where so good. From here we decided more beers where in order and had a night out in Hamburg. To be honest probably would have better just going to bed haha. Tuesday nights are dead.
We lost our Will the next day after another huge food quest all through the city. Looking at the sites the tour guide talked up but we couldn't make. An early night followed because the road trip to London was going to start the next day! Hooray!
