“Chairs are useful” ― Stephen Moffat

Especially when you want to sit down.

Because of the lack of motivation for everything that my brother and I had the last days, our parents took us to the Hercules monument in Kassel.

Today there were the famous trick fountains or water games (or whatever you call it in English).

There were way too many people.

And these water games took sooo long (and there were no chairs).

You went to the station. Wait for half an hour. Watch the water running down for ten minutes. Run to the next station.

In between it was really boring, but all the other time impressive.

(If you ignore the fact that the people who wrote the information points have no idea of Greek and Roman Mythology)

And there were also some funny dressed people. From bride and bridegroom to these two.

They were so friendly to let me take a photo of them. (Thanks again.) If you want to see more of their costumes check out their Facebook-page.

Right at the end after a massive fountain it began to rain. And we started running to our car. No one took a jacked or umbrella with him. We´re so clever.

But on our way back home we bought cake and now everything is fine again.

Only 18 days to go…
