Day 13-14: Internet blind date in Koblenz

The last two days I spent at Koblenz where I met for the first time the people of www.onlinetvrecorder.com in real. I am working with them since 8 months, but all communication was done by email and chatting. Internet makes it possible...

The railway track from Heidelberg to Koblenz is propably one of the most beautyfull in Germany: All along the Rhine river, a world wide known whine region and plenty of castles in the Rhine valley. Most of the time I stayed at the window taking more than 100 pictures in 1 hour.

Arriving in Koblenz we started working immediately as Argentina was playing vs. Netherlands (0:0) at 9pm. For the match we went all together to the 'German Corner', a monument where the Mosel river joins the Rhine. Good german food and beer at the beer garden...
Next day, same setup: Working the day, soccer in the night. Japan surprised us vs. Brasil with the first goal, but they where not able to hold it. But the 2:1 for Brasil was defenitely better for the party after: We went to a club with german beer and a Brasil Samba group, a good combination for late nights.

The high speed train ICE that I am always traveling with.

Whine and ships as far as you can see: The Rhine river.
