Thanks for share Daniel and your interesting details, the picture of the
Harbour - for me - outstands all others, it's really good.

Saludos cordiales

It's been vacation time and I don't even feel bad about it :-)

I started my vacation by volunteering as a school host for Gothia Cup. 
This year we had 31 teams and 492 sleeping over every night (I was
responsible for fire-safety, so I knew how many were in the building each
night and where they were in case we had to get them all out).

Some of the newer clubs (I won't mention which Baltic country) are less than
honest about the ages of their players. We suspected one of signing up 18
year-olds, but then playing with 20 and 21 year olds. Age controls are
rarely done at the actual matches. The team in question didn't live at our
school, but the team that was disadvantaged is an old acquaintance, Gr?n
Weiss Rehfelde.

After that, Ewa and I were tired of being organized and planning, so we got
into the car and headed for southern Denmark. We had only arranged
accommodations for the first night:

In a pleasant town called Ribe (Denmark's arguably oldest town):

But from then on, it was a bit messy. We found a bed and breakfast over an
internet cafe in Flensburg (last door to the right):

That was right off the main street in the city, so walking distance to
everything (35 Euro a night for 2, not 35 Euro each, but for both, breakfast
cost 4 Euro per person).

Then we went on to L?beck, because the B&B didn't have a room available the
next day either.

The whole experience can be summed up by hotel breakfasts, the PAW for week
30:

During my vacation the summer was cold, rainy and lousy:

Thanks for your patience,
