Dresden. A small town filled with old buildings and old people. Yes! That's right. The elderly flock to this town. It was crazy, the day we went into The Old Town, (it really is called that) there was just bus after bus of over 50's!!! This section of the city was 98% destroyed by bombing at the end of WWII just to piss off Hilter...well done Allies. So most of the buildings that are 'old' are actually reconstructed and they are a mixture of new sandstone and burnt stones from the destruction. But in saying that, they do have some really lovely buildings and our favourite was the Swinger which is an old palalce. Was just beautiful.Arou
nd where our hostel is what I called the hippie quarter and this was an are filled with alternate people, goths sitting on a sofa on the footpath drinking just one example, and lots of bars. And lots of beach bars which we also saw in Germany and went to one with Ingrid and Tom in Antwerp. But basically they lay sand in a large area and then add in a bar, chairs and table and there you have it...a beach bar!! But as I was still feeling like crap we did not go to any of these bars. I just slept most of the time to try and get better for the rest of our trip.
A very quiet town.
