Alma had 3 stubborn requests while we were in Hamburg - Beer, Breakfast & Sunshine.
And she had made an extremely classic remarks which really made me laugh :D
She said, 'Why am I in Germany, a place famous for its beer and sausage, during summer, with a friend who can't handle beer, don't like sunshine, and is a vegetarian?' Hahahahahahaha... she really is a sweetie gem! :D
That very afternoon, Alma suggested we should go out into the sun and have beer. And apparently, many people were doing that. The outdoor spaces were incredibly crowded. However, I had planned to steal a little quiet moment away from the sun, in the Starbucks, replying some emails. So I suggested she went ahead first and I would join her later, not for beer & sunshine, but just to just keep her company and have a little sunny chat in the open.

Alma said this empty glass didn't look convincing besides me :P Erhm... is that supposed to be a compliment? =.=

Alma deliberately saved this picture to remind me of what I had missed. Hahahaha... When I was enjoying my Tomata Mozzarella Focaccia (yes again, for the 3rd time) at Starbucks, she had this + beer in the sun. Cool :)

Alma think it absolutely didn't make sense that we were in Germany and yet not drinking! Well, to some extent, i do agree . But friends who know me knows i can't drink, plus i NEVER drink when I am out of my house. But i had decided to make a little exception, for my sweetie dearie friend... so yes, as i was in the room, I did drink a little... :)
And yes of course, as expected, instead of working into the night, which was what I had intended to do, I fell asleep... very shortly after the drink :(

Alma was incredibly excited about the breakfast this morning. I later realised it was becoz she knew she would be having similar content as she would get from her home country - Croatia. Yeah, look, mine is as English as ever... ;P Even though my plate of stuffs didn't excite her very much, it was perfect for me, coz I LOVE English/American breakfast!!!

That was similar to her typical breakfast, back in Croatia... She was so happy about this that she rang her granny (in Croatia) at the breakfast table... Awww... how sweet! I can understand :)

Yes yes, I know this is cheese. But for some reasons, during our conversation, I had naturally, for more than once, referred to this as cream. I was said to have humiliated the CHEESE by repeatedly saying it was cream :P Oh yes, according to her, this is the source of calcium for kids in Croatia, as kids in her country don't drink milk.

I told Alma, 'ok, I shall try what you're eating.' Then I went to grab these cheese. But found that it is too rich to eat it on its own. So...

I went to grab another plate of mushroom + bread + my 5th glass of orange juice. Alma said becoz the water in Germany taste good, the bread there is also good... better than those we eat in London. :)

Well, actually i am no longer into chocolates. However, while in Hamburg, I ate 9 of those in 3 days... :-| This simply tasted toooooo good! :)
