It's already a while ago we agreed we had to meet each other again because it was such a long time ago. So 23 november would be the day we will meet, somewhere between our hometowns: Aachen. I was supposed to bring Bart with me to Aachen but he forgot he had to learn for an exam on Monday so I left him at home with his studybook because I was real real REAL angry! But I will still enjoy with the boys. :) I picked up Bennie in Dordrecht as he was there during the weekend and together we drove …

Aachen CathedralThe Aachen Cathedral, frequently referred to as the "Imperial Cathedral" is a Roman Catholic church In Aachen, western Germany. The church is the oldest cathedral in northern Europe and was known as the "Royal Church of St. Mary at Aachen" during the Middle Ages. It was the site of some Carolingian royal and imperial coronations. For 600 years, from 936 to 1531, the Aachen chapel was the church of coronation for 30 German kings and 12 queens. 

this isn't really a blog i must admit, its more a place to collect my pics from my travels this summer around Europe.

aachen is one of those cities you must visit, not because of its tourist sights, but because of its religious impression on germany.  aachen could be described as a CHURCH TOWN due solely to its focus on christianity.  the good part about this is that weddings and mass are being held constantly, at least when i was there.  during our trip, there were two weddings going on, where we took part in one of them and threw grain at the bride and groom before the slipped into a porsche…

So….this morning we got up and had breakfast at the hotel, which was surprisingly good. Then we got the car and headed off to Aachen. We got there a little after 10:00, and still the stores were closed…sadly we've had three whole days of not much being open…which really sucks when you need to buy another suitcase and some new tennis shoes. Anyway, we got to Aachen and tried to find a place to park, which was pretty easy, aside from the malfunctioning ticket machine to pay for park…

wonderful time in Germany, leaving for Los Angeles tomorrow.

Our drive from the UK through Europe to Italy and Greece, and island hopping in Greece before taking a slow drive home via Eastern Europe.
