Hörbar

On Thursday Jenni (from Finland), Thomas (Jenni's boyfriend from Austria), Ania (a Polish-Canadian) and me met in the centre to go to Hörbar. It is a festival-kind of happening, where in all the bars in the centre there is a band playing, in different bars different genres. We started in Sichtbar (where Ania and I originally met) and continued to Tivoli (where Jenni and Ania originally met). We had some fun "problems" with the English language:

Ania: This Saturday there is the baseball game. Are you coming?
Me: I am in Italy taking care of Fra after his operation...
Jenni: I am not sure I want to stand there the whole day...
Ania: But there a benches! You can sit! You can also take a blanket with you!!
(Jenni meant that she does not want to spend a whole day there,  it was a very Finnglish sentence that I understood too, but a native speaker thought different. Haha)

Me: So, next bar? Which one shall we go to?
Jenni: I have the map here... what about Klappe 2?
Me: yes, sounds good. Ania?
Ania: I'm down!
Me: Why?What happened? Why are you sad?
(Apparently in Canadian slang "I'm down" meand "I am up for it")

Jenni: The music is so loud here that we can't talk at all! Shall we go to the next place?
Ania: What? I can't hear you!

So, we visited also Mr. John's and after that we found all the Couchsurfers on Marktplatz, people from all around the world. Triin from Estonia and her boyfriend Sigi from Austria joined us and we went to Bierlokal to listen to the next band. Heidi from Finland came there and e moved on to Gasthaus 21.

So a good round of the bars in the centre, nice music and a lot of great company :)
