Just a quick update!
We took the Autozug from Hamburg to Munich, and arrived yesterday morning. Staying for two days in Munich and going to Innsbruck in the morning. Visited Augsburg today. Spirits are high. Weather is good. Looking forward to driving the motorcycle in the Alps. Curious people can check my Flickr Honeymoon Set for photos.

On May 17 we finally got married! We’re leaving for our honeymoon in two days, and nothing is booked or arranged yet, so we’re a little busy!
We do have a little treat for our faithful readers - of which there must be at least one or two left. Here it is - our first pictures from the photographer! Enjoy!

The cake is ordered. Catering is taken care of. Parts of the garden pavilion is already in place. The brides dress has been ironed and the groom is pretty sure he knows where his suit is. Everything is under control. Except the weather.
The weather is completely out of our hands, and it’s playing tricks on us. We visited the website of the National Weather Institute yesterday, and none of us were too happy with the predictions: endless showers starting Thursday.

You can’t really fight the weather, so we did the only reasonable thing this morning - we bought an umbrella. I was slowly embracing the thought of our wedding photos being something like we’re completely soaked, it’s raining cats and dogs, but we’re smiling like freshly fed school children. Then I checked the weather service again. This morning is looked much better:

I guess nothing is certain at this point, but a little sunshine would be nice.

No, we’re not dead yet. Lots of things are happening these days, as we get closer and closer to the wedding. It’s less than a week now, and there are still a few missing pieces of the puzzle but we’re getting there.
The first draft of our motorcycle honeymoon road trip route was also put together yesterday. At first sight it looks awesome although possibly a little overwhelming. So far it’s around 4.500 km in total, so the bike is queued up for a change of tires before departure.

It’s one hell of a trip, but I’ve got a feeling it’s going to be awesome. I can feel it in my toes.
