We took a very windy boat trip around the giant Hamburg Port
We took a bus trip to the wealthy suburb of Blankenese, were we saw some amazing homes.
Then on to the famous St Pauli, the Kings Kross or St Kilda of Hamburg.St Pauli is famous for Herbert Straße a street that is blocked of at both ends and is filled with brothels. No women are aloud to enter the street other that the women that work there.
I tried to walk in and take a look but was promptly screamed at buy and angry prostitute......a little scary!
DENMARK
In Denmark we stayed in a little Town by the name of Tonder.This was the town we married.
We were required to register at the town hall 3 days before the ceremony and also to spend 3 nights in the little town in one of the local accommodations. The whole experience was allot of fun.
The lady who ran the little motel we stayed in showed us a photo album were she had taken photos of thousands of couples all dress up on there wedding day who had stayed with her.
Denmark was extremly flat and windy. RIBE
SONDERBORG
The beach side of Sonderborg reminded me alot of the Bay back home.
