Day 39 Munich

After a very slow day off, we’re back at it. Some minor nuisances, like sore throats and colds, so we’ll see how this goes.  Breakfast consisted of the usual, coffee and sandwich. The coffee was really good. Didn’t really do…

Day 38 Munich Day Off

Decided to sleep for as long as I possibly could. That turned out to be 14:30. Got up, the only other people on the bus were the two drivers. Found a sandwich, watched a movie. Took a short walk. Found…

Day 37 Dornbirn

Slept really late, think I woke up at 13:30. No fever, but there’s something in the back of my throat and nose. We’ll see what happens.  Did absolutely nothing today. Sat on a couch the whole day, drinking hot water…

Day 36 Burglengenfeld

Grey and rainy. The usual for breakfast, coffee and sandwich. Slightly below average, I’d say. Practicing the (you guessed it!) Bach Cello Suites. That’s probably the only thing I will practice in the foreseeable future.  Penne Bolognese for dinner. Very…

Day 35 Budapest

Return of the border control. This time at 3:00 in the morning. I was juuuust about to fall asleep.  Breakfast was a sandwich and coffee. Coffee was a 2 out of 5.  Today was a difficult day for me. I…

Day 34 Banja Luka

The dreaded border control was at 7:30 in the morning, so that was ok.  No wifi and the ”regular” net costs a fortune to use AND is limited, so no internet today.  Sandwich and coffee for breakfast at a nearby…

Day 33 Zagreb

Had a sandwich and some coffee for breakfast. The coffee was good. Signed some records for our merch guy to sell at his table. Still working on the Cello Suites and making progress, I’m happy to say.  Short soundcheck with…

Day 32 Belgrade

Slept for 10 hours, a short wake-up for border control, slept another 4 hours.  Pre-made sandwiches and coffee for breakfast. Not bad.  Did an email interview today, for the biggest metal portal in the region. Was nice to do for…

Day 31 Athens Day Off/Travel Day

Couldn’t sleep. Think I fell asleep at 6:00 in the morning. Woke up at 14:00. Felt a bit dizzy, thought I’d take a short walk, get some air and buy some socks.  Took a shower. Walked back to the bus…

Day 30 Athens

Due to the weather we couldn’t leave Thessaloniki on time, so we stayed parked until morning. All night the wind and rain were beating down on the bus. Tree-branches kept hitting the roof of the bus and it was rocking…
