How´s The Weather?

Bad - really bad. Heavy rain and wind since 4 days :(

During my cycle tour in 2012 Great Britain had the worse weather since the year the Titanic sunk in 1912 - I had loads of rain and experienced bad storms. The explanations I heard was that the Jet Stream was right above the Islands. In the graphic below the break one can see where the Jet Stream was in June that year.

Singalong

On my travels in Great Britain I was impressed by the tradition of singing together. People are taking their instruments to the pub and all the visitors are invited to sing along. Yesterday I was told that people from those islands in the times before ipods even were singing together on coach trips :)
Inspired by these habits I am happy to announce that I found some friends who wants to sing with me.
Behind the fold are some of the songs we are singing, so take a deep breath and join us!

The most famous place in Bremen is probably the Market Square

Bremen - Schnoor

Coming from east over the Bremer Wallgraben it is not far to some small old streets called Schnoor.
Usually filled to the brim with tourists  I was quite alone at this time of the day :)

Bremen - Sunny Saturday´s Sightseeing

I had a visitor from a far away island and wanted to show the main attractions of the town.
It was early Saturday morning in May, the sun was shining from an incredible blue sky, and the most people were still in bed - Bremen can look quite nice sometimes :)
In this post I will take you for a walk through the backstreets of a quarter called "Das Viertel" to Bremen´s historical places in the city center, over the farmer´s market, through "Die Wallanlagen" back into Das Viertel.
Further four posts will show the main attractions of Bremen. Enjoy!
