Stockholm


Back from Stockholm.

This town has it all. Cultur, food, sports, water, beautiful building, great partying and wonderful people. This is the feeling you get when you go to Stockholm in summer. In winter there is a diffrent feeling that strikes you.

One thing I noticed is that there is alot of beautiful women in this the capital of Sweden. And I'm not the first one to notice this phenomenon. Many people have told me this before. But this time it really became obvious to me. Ladys everywhere all wearing very short shorts. This might be the reason why many big bands start or end there tour in Stockholm. Well, at least bands made up by men tend do this.

There is also a club in Stockholm that only has open during the summer. It's called Trädgården which means the garden. It's like a playground for young people a bit older than 20. This year they where located under one of the big bridges. The tall bridge made a very nice space and the people where cool, nice and not to stuck up which can be the case in the more fancy places. Simple said, a very nice place. And it didn't hurt that you can play ping-pong or Supermario Brothers on NES.

So if you ever question where to go on vacation. Just go to Stockholm. But do it in summer.

Männertag


Father's Drunk Day.

Tomorrow is Father's day in Germany, but it's not only called father's day and it isn't about giving your dad a tie. No, tomorrow is Männertag (mans day).

This celebration has moved on from coffee and cake and a last minute gift to the old man. Now it's the day of the year when all men in the country gets a free pass and can go out and get drunk. Drunk off your ass and it's only lunch time, no problem, your not alone. Tomorrow almost everyone is having one to many beers.

It's not uncommon to get ones friends together, load up a wheelbarrow with beer, snaps and food supplies and hitting the road. Decorating your bike and running around town is also a classic when it comes to this national holiday.

Asking a friend on his thoughts about this day he responded,
- Männertag is a nice day, it's when you just hang out with your friends and drink a beer. I know some who will go fishing, others will just hang out in the park and grill. And it's not only the guys who are celebrating. A group of girls I know will also be out partying.

Some might not like the overall drunkenness of this day, to them I say, Have a beer and chill!

That said, I will be celebrating in my own way tomorrow. Maybe even tonight. And knowing myself I will be to hung over for a post. See you on Friday.
