Back in Stuttgart

Posted by marc on August 27th, 2009

after 19 hours in the bus. well it was 2 hours at the bus station in Prague to lighten things up. In Europe bus travel is sooo slow compared to Asia where it is usually the fastest. Of course after the plane….

Went to a salt mine 1st. This one started the production in the 13th century. Still they produce salt on a small scale. More than 200 km on 9 levels.

The last horse retired in 2002 and was the only one that came back up alive.

Back in Kežmarok

Lucky i was yesterday – only 17 hours instead of 18 in the bus. And for half the way i had the 5 seats in the back – still i was wracked.
Now we sit at some friends place and it is holiday again.

Off to Slovakia

for a few days i am. Shall conquer the High Tatra and some small villages.

Yesterday i had my morning coffee in the garden. Church bells and birds was the only noise out there. The sky was blue and it was so clean. Somehow i really enjoy to come back home.
And – i really enjoy to go away from it as well :-)

I am in Stuttgart!

and they made me walk 30 minutes from out of the plane to the departure gate – tsss.
How can you build an airport like a pencil??
And why can the planes not dock somewhere in the middle??

At last there is free internet and lots of power plugs. Did never see that many people sleep – something to keep one entertained while walking forever and a day.

The flight was ok – emirates has more than 600 different channels: movies, news, games and other stuff. no way to get bored. as i had my vegetarian menu 1st the guy that served the regular food did not know i had eaten already. so he asked me what i want and i told him the fish. he had one special fish menu left that he gave me instead of the regular fish. so i had even 2 times food :-)

Ludger took me and his driver for dinner in shanghai. Went to a nice place and had good food. Than his driver took me to the airport. i have to say that it is quite different when you have a limo service instead of an old santana taxi!
Cheers Ludger!!
