Germany Trip

Friday night and I'd be in the sky on my way to Leipzig, Germany. It's amazing how close Germany is to England. The flight is less than 2 hours. J and I paid £250 for the tickets which I think is too much for a less-than-2-hours' journey.

We'd be catching Argentina's match with Mexico. For people who don't know me well enough, I am a huge Argentina fan. Been one since, well, more than a decade ago. I hope they win the World Cup in my lifetime. Dang.

It's stupefying how Axl Rose (my idol) is also a fan of Argentina! I didn't know that when I started supporting Argentina. Well, I always knew we shared more than good taste. ;) There is just something about Axl and I. Such coincidences are aplenty.

So, we'd be in Germany for a week. I was in Frankfurt during France '98. There was where I also saw the first fireflies in my life. In the dead of the night. It was beautiful. The company I was with was beautiful too. It's nice that I'm back in Europe for the World Cup.

We planned to visit Munich, Frankfurt or Dresden but time and finances couldn't permit. I guess that's fine. I heard Leipzig is cool enough to stay a whole week.

I will be back with updates!

Goodbye London!

PS: I absolutely abhor Holland (World Cup-wise). I can't respect a team who plays dirty almost every match.
