Biking across Germany

Hannover 3

Went toy shoping for my son... "spaceship lego" he asked.. well i went for a 6 klm hike based on where the GPS said there were shopping centres.... however the GPS mapping software needs some serious updating as the major complexs I have discovered are right next to the bloody hotel and the GPS didn't know about it.

As for lego - old Ossi (east german) commuist appartments are referred to as lego houses - maybe he'd settle for one of those. They are probably cheaper too!

The more I see of this city, the more it feels like Melbourne complete with the trams.
The weather has cooled to around 30 degrees down from the 36 of the past few days. People are still complaining but for an Aussie, this is the summer weather we'd kill for. There is still an ozone layer over europe so I can go out in the sun for hours and nothing happens... in comparison to the burning that occurs within 1 hour in Australia in the same conditions.

anyhow, off to find the spaceship lego and then a deutsche post to send it off. I also need to orgaise my bags and so forth so I can have a late night and get away early tomorrow. Some hills to encounter on the way to Porta Westfalica I was told... we shall see
