Dresden Train Station...Dresden Train Station...Dresden Train Station...

...on the way to Hamburg.
Made the train trip to Hamburg without any fuss....and Ines joined us for the journey!

Found our hotel the Auto-Parkhotel easily enough, right by the train station in a
suburb called SAINT PAULI!
These germans are smart people!

What can i say about Hamburg?

Well....its like a little Amsterdam here....we are right next to the Reeperbahn (google it!) and
went out for dinner that night and lots of very friendly Hamburger girls wanted to talk to us!
the street was full of them being very friendly to all the men walking past...i cant speak
german so i didnt quite know what they where saying, i think it was something like "Welcome
to Hamburg, i hope you enjoy your visit" or something similar....

just did the other usual tourist things and went for a walk (between rain showers) to the
docks and the markets....nice town this!

anyways, have a look at the pics as im off to Denmark today!
