30 Jul '04 - + 7 - 23 New pictures added!
I've added new
pictures
to the Germany section of this site. They are from a weekend trip
I took to Hamburg in May. My wife, Jenny, was working for two
weeks at a hospital in Hamburg testing medical devices for her company,
Stereotaxis. I joined her
for the middle weekend of her business trip, and we had a great couple
days. We wandered everywhere, from the
Reeperbahn to the
Alster. We were very lucky to be in Hamburg the weekend of the
Hafengeburtstag,
the celebration of the birthday of the Port of Hamburg, commemorating
the date in 1189 when Emperor Barbarossa granted Hamburg the right to
be a free port. Hamburgers rightly celebrate the proclamation,
which is the direct cause of Hamburg being a world-class port, even to
this day. Russian
tall ships,
street vendors, and general merriment ruled the weekend.
So please enjoy the new pictures! There will be more pictures of Alaska soon, too.
