Altonaer Balkon =============== Wednesday 1 July 2009 09:03 When the weather forecast involves sun and temperatures that would make cycling during the day not very attractive, I start at 5:30 by speeding down the almost empty Elbchaussee, full speed through the Louis C. Jacobcurve, trying not to hit some early shift Airbus employees at Teufelsbrücke, through sleepy Oevelgönne, along the already busy Fischmarkt, through Baustelle HafenCity, over the Elbbrücken, along industrial Grasbrook, through the Alte Elbtunnel, up the Altonaer Balkon and then back to Blankenese. Breakfast at 8:00. I don't know why it takes the Europa 15 days to go from Hamburg to Kiel. by Roland van Ipenburg http://www.xs4all.nl/~ipenburg/blog/posts/play/2009/07/01/altonaer-balkon/
