Visiting the "Saint"'s birthplace: Ulm

Short visit in Albert's birthplace, not because of Albert, but because of...beer with friend. Readers of mikidtaiwan blog will remember april 2005 when Leca and me met in Taipei and Hsinchu for few boxes (!) of beer.

Well, finally came the time to do the same in Germany. Quite irrational are these our meetings 'for a beer', soon we'll have to issue a map that these with poor geography could folow our beer-path. It started looong time ago in the most proper place in the world: Czech Prague, 1991.

This year's "edition" of our meetings brought me to Ulm, where Leca is working last few years. The milestone of Ulm, highest church in the world: 161m, they were building it for few centuries (half a milenium or so), only Germans could finally finish it also...others would go to do smthing else in meantime!

This one I really liked! And the wall behind is interesting, as houses are built ON it! Nowhere I saw such thing.

Ulm is a nice city...for few hours, if U have good company for beer (which is also good, one A...? fom the monastery is really good, herbal taste, similar to my favorite Flensburger.
Nice meeting with the city. I am curious how long I'll need until my road would lead me here again? In some other life?
