Florence on the Elbe

Woohoo free time! While Monique went off somewhere to attempt to spend more money under the guise of needing wedding stuff, I went for a walk around Dresden. They have some decent musical instrument shops around the Neustadt but nothing I needed. The walk is is pretty decent over to the Altstadt. I went past pretty much everything that would show up in a postcard of Dresden. -jp

Dresden is here.

From across the Elbe

They call Dresden “Florence on the Elbe” but I have no idea why. It’s much nicer than Florence. It’s more picturesque, the people are friendlier, and it’s cheaper. It’s also easier to find parking.

If they improved the food a bit then I’d never need to go to Italy again.

Is that an alp in your pocket?

Nary an hour from here, the foothills of the alps make a good subject. It’s almost like they take the picture for you. Why are we leaving here again…?

The beginning

So… everything starts somewhere and here’s where we’ll begin. We’ve given notice at our jobs and will be heading off at the end of January to the warm waters of Koh Tao, Thailand and then onward to Australia to basically drive around and check the place out.

Departure is still over a month away so this is really a test post and a way to say, welcome!

We haven’t gone anywhere yet. Thus, we can currently be found here:
