A big boat, as
seen from our hotel window |
 |
Helen next to a
mash tun (brewing thing) |
 |
Coos, loads of
coos |
 |
Hamburg's
historic heart |
 |
The
library. No, really. |
 |
The helpful sign
at the end of the Reeprbahn - docks to the left, "Endo Klinik"
to the right |
 |
Now that's what I
call graffiti |
 |
Alien eggs on the
dockside |
 |
Big cranes for a
big boat |
 |
The inside of our
sightseeing vessel |
 |
The deck |
 |
Helen on board |
 |
Blohm & Voss
own just about the whole shooting match |
 |
The white ship is
a famous one, the grey one belongs to the Brazilian navy. Yes, we
were surprised too |
 |
The Lion Kin
theatre |
 |
Looks Big
Brother-ish to me! |
 |
The large open
expanse that is the Millerntor |

St Pauli's ground
(the Millerntor Stadion) in the background |
 |
Helen? With
a Stadium plan? Surely not? |
 |
Graphic evidence
of the fans friendship between St Pauli and Celtic |
 |
The pennants
hanging in the Millentor clubhouse |
 |
And again,
looking the other way |
 |
Helen, on the way
out of the clubhouse |
 |
The wall of fame. |
 |
Inside the ground
itself |
 |
The far corner |
 |
Behind the goal |
 |
Sums up the
club's philosophy (or not, if you talk to Altona 93 fans!) |
 |
Paul outside the
front door |
 |
German toilet
humour |
 |
The Polizei get
into the neon swing of things on the Reeperbahn |
 |
The Brazilian
Navy set sail, brass band in full swing. It's okay lads -
7am? I was up already! |
