This travelling is getting easy...

not to put a jynx on this, but we've had a lot of luck with this whole travelling lark. We're now in Nurenburg, in a nice hostel called "Let 'em sleep" (at least that is the way I read it). We arrived today after a heavy night of drinking. Pretty much scoured all the bars around Regensburg, drinking whiskey and annoying the owners. We got a good nights sleep (slept in till 10am) and had a hassle free journey all the way here.

Hey look, carriage returns; luxery. So we arrived here this morning (we haven't had a hang over so far, as German beer is that good apparently) and made our way straight to this huge hostel. We hadn't booked ahead as usual but managed to get two beds in seperate rooms. Chris is staying in a room called Ratzplaza or something and I'm sharing room with 15 other people. If my brothers sleepinmg bag goes missing I'll go nuts.

We did three brewerys today, so that keeps us above average. In celebration we have decided to take tomorrow "off" and just see museums instead. So it's probably worth mentioning that we have visited 20 breweries in the last 9 days, and we have also had beers from seven other bereweries. Every beer has tasting notes; including name, colour, volume, aroma, taste and finish. A lot of times we have kept "video notes", which means we have recorded our tasting sessions on camera. You'll have to bear in mind that we have had a good couple of beers per brewey so it's no walk in the park. I'm looking forward to my day off tomorrow!!

Must dash, toilet calls!
