I had to ask - is it legal to carry open beer bottles in Hamburg?
I see people carry and drinking from open beer bottles everywhere in the city, so I had to look it up. Beer is an important part of German culture. The tax rates for alcoholic beverages in Germany are below average compared to the rest of Europe and there are very few regulations governing availability. Drinking in public is generally legal and considered socially normal. Above photo is from the subway.
Bosco's Birthday Bash! How convenient that we were in a Port with a Wave Lagoon Pool just minutes away on Bosco's actual birth date, November 3rd.
AUSTRALIA marks our 6th Continent of this trip around the World! I visited Australia & New Zealand for the first time back in 2016, but we didn't make it to Darwin then - so I was excited to see this time.
A lot of people went to dinner in costume, but the full party started after at 8:30 pm with fun and games first, then the dance floor opened outside. I hand sewed our Pebbles & BamBam costumes.
