get the wor (l) d

Or so.
At least I have the last tour again correctly use the possibilities and made the trip again NEN working holiday trip. As far as that goes. So very same commitment and started on the first stop of our tour Baltic same time landed.
Tallinn is a beautiful small town of just when the sun not to be despised. Unfortunately, a bit empty, except for a street in downtown Tallinn has not really revived. After all, there are a lot of cafes and even an aura photo shop, so what more could you want?
Sure, if you go to Tallin to the east and wants more, wants to St. Petersburg. Or Leningrad, depending on whether you believe the entrance sign on the water or the city. Mir's it matter to me so I've also looked at St. Petersburg. A beautiful, exciting city. Cultural highlights of which I previously knew only from the Russian point last seen time ago. And ends the trip as I had begun it.

Started on Nevsky Prospekt, fell directly on the cathedral Kasansker ausm taxi. And I was pleased about the nice people there comfortably romp on the lawn. However, since the city's wishes rather have clean and empty, just bring any money people in the park's why people come out of there soon and Rasensprikler with prohibition signs down. Aha.
At the end of the trip a similar experience, but we are not there yet. First came out for the Winter Palace, the Church of the Redeemer, the armored cruiser Aurora, the Peter and Paul Fortress and the only Toilettenbus the world (or at least far and wide) to see, wonderful. In between all the Neva, about the sun and in the hand is always playing Russian ice cream tasting on board with this waffle. Which incidentally is not even raise more easy.
In any event, a wonderful trip, impressive. Evening, then back towards the harbor, in time to get over the seven bridges that open at night and no one left after 1 am on the islands of the city, including the ship leave.
Then, at the former beach promenade or drink a beer, And come to blabber on, with two Russians, one was German (no wonder they came from Wiesbaden). Former beach promenade, in front because of the new harbor is being built. There, where our ship is, in this huge building site in the middle of nothing. An artificially raised port, to a highway and an artificially constructed town. And where before there were times of social housing with a beach view now creates a Nobel world that Dubai can be gathering dust in the sand, or something like that (see [1] and [2] ). Aha.

Then I got an old Russian tradition, my disappointment sunk in alcohol, and that was wonderful!

Well, yesterday in Stockholm looked at again in the evening, from fersehturm, and now shall it be also already time to pack belongings. Is about time, and now I am at least correct in the holiday mood. And by the end of your holiday ISTS long way off, juhuuu!

Knowing even from before. Early it goes with NEM thick wallet and NER Russian work on the horizon in the school, nothing seems further away than the holiday on the Baltic Sea. Sitting quietly in the classroom and sweat. Because the heat is incredibly early age. So that you can not concentrate anyway, to do nothing. And then, after Hofpause, around 10am, a tense waiting for the recess bell. Those decisions based on results of a research unfälschbaren inspection of selected specialists (Physik!) thermometer to school, between Russian retreat and freedom.
And it rings once, twice, yeah! The whole school screaming "free heat" and an hour later they all meet again in the pool, exactly, because that was back then.
Today, everything is different, but yet so similar. First, Martin's fault. After I am THURSDAY evening after a furlough of a few hours (nice people and made my future scooter) was on board again in time we would just run out yet (ie depart) must. But Martin, in his capacity a stormy deep, had to spontaneously run up to peak performance . Too much rush for the exit port of Rostock small and such a large ship.
Friday, after waking up, is still Rostock left and right visible next to the ship. Another day on board already, but have not got away from the pier. Martin blows still full can. And as always, on the first day there ne emergency exercise, but this time got away without his at all.
And then the decision must be made. Not from me, fortunately. But not to make the whole even more stressful, it is decided that all guests are allowed to return until midnight on board if they want to, before It could not go.
Granted, there was not really a cry hurray on board. In my ears were guests who came from Rostock, who of course were thrilled limited. Could look but then again at home on the right, in speaking such a storm you never know
But the crew, so I could also get out again, this time until late in the evening. Yeah! A smile on the Geschtern some fish Koeppe. What an offer for an evening at home, thank you Martin!
An evening that was truly wonderful, it's good cooking itself. And then There Were Hop, live, and directly in our house. half and half . Well, Sturmfrei just because party is made. Lovely!

And that was yesterday, today and Martin have not lost the fun to annoy us. But a little out of breath but isser. And off we go, right. With 2 days late. Be wherever, now finally has to improvise. But I'm looking forward to the penultimate round here, which is more varied than expected.

Another round behind me and slowly I found my toys on board. In fact, I am working most of the time with phones, not bad. Somehow corresponds exactly my education, even if the former set of Hebdrehwählern now a firmware update equivalent. Incidentally, I was never good at Hebdrehwähler set, but that's not so incidentally, out here, too.
Here is one that I had recently visited. In Rostock, very welcome visit from my flat and around it, beautiful. And I used to think Baltic rounds are stupid, nope. Wonderful to be home every few days. And love to see familiar faces. And a beer in the House of Friendship ( program drinking). Like a real country person.

And as a holiday visit in between the Baltic Sea, yelling, Rainer? Although I would even book a vacation in this weather, but today's it already cold and rainy! Well, did, indeed, two attempts to see Tallinn. A good feeling that the time is already scarce. But I still have to see the pubs of Tallinn, the armored cruiser of Leningrad and the fjords of Helsinki. Before going in July, again in Rostock am, and hopefully you all will meet when they go camping. Yeah!
