Utrecht / Holland: Delicacies in the land of bikes

Just a few hours in Utrecht on a business trip. I always thought Germany had many bikes on the street, and then I saw this!!

Three rows of bikes including on the walls over about 1km! And that's the same all around town. Definitely Holland is the land of bikes!

Feeling hungry, would like a snack? Just go to the automatic machine and get yourself a "super Kroket", personal service guaranteed! Yummy!

Sunset over Hamburg

Small get-together in Hamburg on the side of the Alster. The worst thing about Hamburg is not that its people believe they live in the most beautiful city in the world, but rather that after a while, they make you believe it!
9 friends, 9 bikes, 1 common link: Conergy, and of course the same buffalo meat from Argentina!
We even had a hot-air balloons show over the city.

Francfort ranked 7th for the best places to live!
