| Our Tour Guide |
I woke up pretty early, got cleaned up for the day and went
on a short walk because I was feeling a bit under the weather from the previous
night’s merriment.
While waiting in the lobby with Dmitri, we acquired another addition to
our group, an American named Rus. He,
the three Australians and myself all enjoyed our continental breakfast together,
the Canadian couple did not make to join us.
After breakfast everyone dispersed to get ready for the walking tour,
I went back to my bunk and took a nap.
Besides the seven of
us in our little group there was several other people from the hostel that were
going to go on this walking tour. Our
tour guide was a tall man from the UK with a really bad haircut but a very
witty sense of humor, and was an excellent source of information. He took us to see many of the main sites that
I had seen the day before on my own but provided much more in-depth information
than my guide book had provided. The
tour lasted just a little over 4 hours leaving us tired and hungry so we sought
out a nice restaurant that served German food.

After dinner we headed back to the hostel to rest and take
naps in preparation for a night of bar hopping and clubbing. We started the night at the hostel’s bar, then moved on to a few closer bars before venturing to some smaller clubs much
later of which were all empty. At this
point we took taxis to one of the newer big clubs. It had many different rooms and was
multi-storied with a very industrial style environment. Since it was only a Wednesday night the club
was not too crowded but we still got our dance on and had fun.
We ended the night eating Doner Kababs near our hostel
before calling it a night. I finally
crawled into bed around 4:15 in the morning.
