Qingdao - Gan Bei to the World (Aug. 24-26)

Let's go to Qingdao! How? Once again on the nightbus... Voila, Qingdao Beer Museum. This is also the brewing site at the same time.
Taking a bath in the grand pool.
Our ancestors already felt like home in Qingdao...why? Well, they had the taste of a delicious premium pils!
The brewery was founded in 1903 as a German-British brewing company to produce German style beer in China, producing beer mainly for Germans and other Westerners in China.
Beer patrol! Don't move an inch!

Gimme the Qingdao Blues sister.
International Relations.
Oopps, what a wastage, you should have seen the collision that was about to happen shortly!
The bottling plants are made in Germany, of course.

That inclined room made us wizzy-dizzy!
Free trial of the real deal.

Qingdao Harbor. Its appearance is changing rapidly due to the Olympics next year. Qingdao will host the sailing and rowing competitions. Therefore, Qingdao is currently investing 0.5 billion Euros in order to modernize its sailing facilities.

Dedication to my Bavarian friends, the Paulaner Festzelt.
One more dedication to my Bavarian friends, Löwenbräu.

Finally, the last dedication to my Bavarian friends, the Erdinger Festzelt. This is where we invited the people to join the Schunkel-dancefloor. Oins, zwoa, droa, g'suffa!

Gan Bei to the World!
I participated in a switching-the-hat-game.


Afterwards, we checked out the fair.

...invaded the tunnel of horror.


..conquered the bouncing castle.
Zhan Qiao, a famous pier on Qingdao's southern shore. It is Tsingtao's present-day logo displaying an image of that pier.


Beach No. 3!

On the horizon you can see the Olympic Sailing Center at the very end of the bay.

Picking up some folks along the highway...
Last Gan Bei. Opps, pics are not in order.

Good morning Shanghai, we got back at 5:30 am. I went to Alex's apartment straight away. The first thing we did was ironing our shirts and pants. That is a hell of an attitude, simply passion baby;)
