I'll be heading to Germany (frankfurt, berlin, hamburg, lubeck, dresden & leipzig) in a week for 2 weeks, so if you've got a favorite beer garden, dive pub, or restaurant that serves the best currywurst, hit me up with them. I promise to bring back some pics (possible nudes, weather permitting.)

Thanks :cheers:

Shit, I haven't been in so long that I couldn't tell you where the hell I went. And some of them are surely gone now anyway.

I will, however, make a prediction: Hamburg is Dalen's sorta place. Largest port in Europe (hey sailor, you lookink for good time no?), ginormous redlight district, and a jaw-droppingly gorgeous landscaped park in the middle (Planten Und Blomen), complete with chinese water gardens.

I am intrigued by your offer of nudes

be sure to check this out

Red Light Frankfurt

Adult entertainment is big business in Frankfurt, unsurprising given the mix of large numbers of lonely business travellers and legal prostitution. The area known as Bahnhofsviertel, the block directly opposite Hauptbahnhof, is one of the largest red light districts in the world. Here are a number of Eros Centres, strip clubs, sex shops and chat-up bars (where women will talk to you while sipping the €50 glass of water that you’re paying). Beware of unscrupulous people hanging around this area, and be careful when entering an Eros Centre, bar or strip club. Always make sure you know the cost of anything you purchase before doing so, and employ as much common sense as you have left. Obey those rules and all will be fine; Frankfurt’s red light district is as safe, professional and organised as the sex industry gets.

Eros Centres are licensed brothels, without a Madame, where the working girls rent small rooms for the day, or just a few hours, and charge visitors upwards of €30 for twenty minutes of, well, whatever it is they want to do. A closed door means the young lady is busy, while an open door means you can go in and negotiate a price. As a rule Eros Centres are situated on four or five floors, and we are told that the price tends to get lower the higher you go (so it’s a pity there are no Eros Centres in any of the skyscrapers). Though you should keep an eye on your wallet, the sheer number of people coming and going make these places as safe as pop’s front porch. It is also, of course, in the girls’ interest to make sure that customers leave well pleased.

Also, Hitler's hideaway: EAGLE'S NEST

[img][650:488]http://www.flatrock.org.nz/topics/history/assets/eagles_nest_view.jpg[/img]

Hitler's "Eagle's Nest" was designed and built for Adolf Hilter's 50th Birthday by his personal secretary and Head of the Nazi Party Chancellery Martin Bormann. The monument is called "Kehlsteinhaus" in German because of it was originally intended to be a "Teahouse" for the head of the Third Reich. This mountain-top hideaway played a prominent role as the main unit objective in HBO's critically acclaimed mini-series "Band of Brothers."


The allied bombing and battles of World War II left building intact and today the Eagle's Nest remains in its original state. In the years after the war, the Eagle's Nest and the surrounding area of Berchtesgaden remained a part of US Armed Forces property in southeastern Germany. The US military set up a recreation center where servicemembers could hike in the summer and ski in the winter. The US military returned the area to Germany in the 1990s.

I went the other way from Frankfurt (Heidelberg, Freiburg, Munich, Rothenburg), so all I can recommended is walking around Freiburg and drinking (edit) two Hofbrau steins in 15 minutes.

Freiburg is cool. Still has the old drainage trenches paved into the streets, a ton of museums, college students, good cafe's... and Rothenburg an der Tauber is bee-yootiful. Black Forest, whatwhat.

My wedding best man grew up in Germany and I had two brothers stationed there while in the military and a German girl first introduced me to a broadcast board and Xenia Seeberg was kinda hot on Lexx, but that's all I got.
