Day 1 - Frankfurt, Hamburg

Saturday 17th July, 2004: Frankfurt to Hamburg. Day 1 began with a rendezvous at the local Sixt Car rental place to pick up our wheels for the week - a silver Mercedes CLK convertible. We then left Frankfurt for the 500km of Autobahn leading to Hamburg. After driving the first 200km with the top down Sam then decided to put the top up to see how fast we could go....(answer: fast). After arriving in Hamburg we met Rudi - Sam's mate from Accenture who gave the abbreviated tour of Hamburg. However the cultural events were not until that night - after being told stories of finishing a Saturday night in the Fishmarkets, Sam and Ian were determined to see the night through at the various pubs and bars until 5am. The fishmarkets at 5:30 on a Sunday morning are truly an interesting part of Hamburg.
