Hamburg – The Day of Rest

Yesterday we took it really easy.  Because we had been so active walk and walk all over the old part of the city in the past few days our legs and feet were pretty tired.  We treated ourselves to the hop on hop off bus tour.

We did one ride around the main historical sights.  This included going around the Außeralster which it only took about 20 minutes to get around while it took us 3 hours to walk (with various breaks to enjoy the view and a drink!).  I found out that the houses we admired so much are unsurprisingly amongst the most expensive in the city.  They cost about 10,000 euros a square meter.  Hamburg has the highest concentration of millionaires and billionaires in Europe.  Anyone want to share a few?

We also did another line with the tour that took us through the dock lands and ship yards.  Unfortunately I didn’t really understand the commentary and it was rather extensive.  I don’t really have any pictures to show as it was all pretty much a repeat of previous days.

After some very very late lunch and a walk to the Binnenalster we just camped out and relaxed in our hotel room.  We’re such party animals!
