I love that my last update which has about 100 updates needed ended up being just one paragraph.

I can’t really remember the date that we moved to Cologne (Köln, for all of you who think Cologne refers to men’s perfume), but out first friends to come and visit us in the Fatherland was Fox and Trito!!

After having spent almost 7 months in Giessen, I can understand why no one came to visit us then, so it was cool to finally have stuff to show people!! So the first night we were able to have some kind of nerd-crew get together, with me, fox, purri, trito, neok and carmac.

The second day we had off work, and spent the time doing touristy stuff, such as visitng the dom. That thing is really impressive and i’m glad that we actually went there. I think if they didn’t come we would never go!! You know how it is – you are never a tourist in your own city.

The Dom

Then on Saturday we took a short drive to Venlo, as Trito had never seen Holland oustide of Schiphol. I wouldn’t really call Venlo typical Holland I guess, but it was wonderful to see all the charming little streets and houses. I even picked myself up a pair of totally killer indoor slippers, with a cute little pink bear.

Later that evening when we got back, we met up with CrashLady, another female Quake 3 player (formerly from BadGirlsClan) and smuv, one of g0d’s CA teammates in the ESL cup. We had a bbq in the park, which would have been epic aside from the fact that we got these shitty temp bbqs and they didnt light properly, so we had very little food =(

I wanted to go to the steak house down the street but I guess that plan was forgotten as we went out afterwards. Somehow we managed to make our way home walking from the place in Köln with the clubs (friesenplatz or something) which was cool

Then on Sunday it was a chill day, where we ended up meeting up with 2gd later that evening. I guess fox and trito were so bored with us we always had to meet the other nerdz in köln. There are so many gamers here, im starting to think this city is more nerdy than Stockholm XD.

PS: Vote for trito!!
