Germany Day 32 - Saturday, Feb 7

Went to gym at Patton Barracks at ll to find out it does not open to 12. Left there went over to the PX, looked in book shop and had lunch a Popeyes. Went back to gym at Patton. At each of these little bases, you have to stop at a checkpoint with armed guards and present your government ID (not your driver's license) to get on. So base hoping is a bit more inconvenient than you may think.

After the workout went to yet a third base, PHV, to get my laundry done. Duntz that I am, I forgot to bring anything to read. OK, I has a cigar to pass the time - under a shelter because of the constant drizzle.

Back at the hotel, I felt a little sickish - I guess all the cold and I went out last night to the local gas station for one final beer without a hat. I see why everyone wears one in the winter here. Talked to Ann on Skype for an hour and dad dinner in the hotel with Carolin again and collapsed in bed at 9:30.
