Hamburg so far...

We are here for 7 weeks while B is working with the Hamburg State Opera.



Catching a ferry along the Elbe, these building are in St Pauli and are painted bright colours and many have banners with political slogans.





The "beach" in Hamburg. Apparently when it gets warm people sunbathe and go swimming and they set up bars on the beach.









Shoes in a tree...






A pretty suburb called Blankenese, it used to be a fishing village, now it is home to lots of rich people. There are lots of cute staircases and laneways to explore.















We have an apartment for most of our time here. It's in St Georg. It's very comfy.















B drinking a very big beer.






There are lots of canals around the city which are lovely.



The Alster lake, this is nearby our flat and good for walking around.

Awesome, it looks like you're having a wicked time in Hamburg! FC St Pauli rock - they're anarchists - you should go to one of their games. Also check out the Rote Flora if it's still around...
