It occurred to me at some point yesterday that this vacation of mine has essentially been me taking myself on wonderful dates every single day.
Yesterday was kind of ridiculous.
I went kayaking on the canals around Alster for several hours and was hopelessly lost the whole time but didn't care because I was kayaking on canals in Hamburg. Then, because I had gotten myself a transit day pass, I picked a random part of town I hadn't seen yet and went there. I was hungry so I grabbed some Chinese food and wandered into a park with this amazing fountain.
I freshened up at the hostel and enjoyed a nice, refreshing wheat beer, and then headed to the theatre to catch a movie. This theatre was super classy and had a lounge to sit in before the movie, and I was early so I ordered a cocktail and sat back, feeling classy. The movie was excellent - though unfortunately dubbed over in German so I missed most of the dialogue.
I am not making this up. When I left the theatre, it had just rained and there were still a few scattered drops here and there, making the mostly empty streets glisten. There was a man not far away playing the accordion as I waited for my bus. Once i got on, throughout the whole ride home, a fireworks show went on outside the windows.
Seriously. Throw in a beautiful man who walks me home and kisses me goodnight gently but confidently and you've got half a Nicholas Sparks movie.
