I'm Back in Bamberg

I rolled into town yesterday afternoon by train from Frankfurt. RE the whole way with a change in Wuerzburg. First train was nice, but second train was packed, and I stood between cars the entire hour (I always forget that Fridays are bad train travel days, almost as bad as Sundays). Got into my FeWo, then took a walk around the Altstadt. Then walked to Spezial for dinner and beers. Very busy there. Eventually met some friendly local guys on a "visit every brewery for 1 seidla of Bockbier" pub crawl, and then talked to a couple from the UK who said they had met Fred years ago. The Bock at Spezial was very, very good, but so was the U. After Spezial finally kicked us out, I stopped at Faessla Stub'n for 2 more (incl. the Bock, from bottle). A great first night, but I paid the piper today by sleeping til the afternoon (I had only had 4 hours or less of sleep the previous 4 nights). I am heading out now to meet Gerhard and Matthew Jessop. More later... Jimbo
