Apart from fleeting memories of a night time stop at an autobahn service station en route to Slovenia in the mid 90’s, my first trip to Germany was to Hamburg in March 2008. It was as part of a group of 15 blokes and we were there celebrating a 50th Birthday. We stayed in the Altona area of the City and as befits 15 blokes in Hamburg we spent a large part of our time in bars.
I did however manage to take a few photos and get enough information to write a few tips. If you do want to see what we got up to you can have a look at my
Hamburg Report in the travelogue section below.
