Sparknotes
- Had a GREAT 5 hour train ride from Leeuwaden to Hamburg
- Stayed at a hostel (2nd time this trip…)
- Caught up on computer/email stuff
- Hit up a bar with a Canadian and Italian guy
After sleeping in a bit and hanging out with Elisabeth for a short breakfast (included fresh muffins she just baked), I made my way to my favorite place - the train station, to catch a ride to Hamburg, Germany. I was mainly just going to Hamburg to split up the travel time to Copenhagen which is where was heading next. I also thought it would be cool to check out the Beatlemania museum, considering that I’m a huge beatles fan and the Beatles got their start it Hamburg.
Anyway, the train ride was good, but pretty soon I was lost in Hamburg trying to find my hostel. After an hour of taking different metros and walking the wrong way for 15 minutes, I made it to the Backpackers Hostel in Saint Pauli. It was cozy, but not exactly in the prettiest of locations (which is also what is "cool" about the area I found out). I put in some solid computer time at the hostel, then went out to the bars with my two roommates for the night: an Italian and Canadian guy who were both roughly my age.
The night was pretty laid back and I had a good time hanging out with them, but it wasn’t anything special. At about 1am, we left the bar and parted ways. My contacts were killing me and I was super tired, so I went back to the hostel while they went off to some more bars in the Reeperbahn district of town. That’s about it. Haha
