Austria vs Germany

As I told you before: It’s soccer time here in Austria. It’s the Euro 2008. Today Austria played against Germany. And we lost again (0:1). Damn it! :-( Whatever, life goes on. The qualification for the World Soccer Cup starts in a few weeks and Austria will definitely qualify for the tournament. Maybe we’ll be world champions in two years … :mrgreen:

My sweetheart, me, myself and I went to the Rathausplatz in the center of Vienna. There’s a special soccer-fanzone. Everyone there was painted and dressed in the colors of either Austria or Germany.

Even the tourists:

This is Sonia, a really nice girl from Spain (as she told me later) who we painted in the colors of Austria. I’ll keep my fingers crossed for your team on Sunday when they are playing against Italy. Viva l’España! :-)

Würzburg, Ural, Aschaffenburg and back

The sidecar I mentioned yesterday is an Ural. We went to see and test it in a small town near Frankfurt, in Egelsbach. After examining and riding it for about an hour, my brother decided not to take it because its condition wasn’t good enough.

On our trip to Egelsbach we had a break on a motorway resthouse at Würzburg South. We had a great view over Würzburg there. I took several images and photomerged them:

After examining the sidecar and going back on our six hour trip from Egelsbach to Passau, we stopped at Aschaffenburg where we had lunch and visited the Johannisburg.

There was a great red brick wall near the Johannisburg which provided a nice motive for another wallpaper. :-) Just click on the image below. If you are looking for another red brick wall, try this one.

We had lunch in a lovely restaurant near the Johannisburg where I found these nice beer coasters. :)
