Peas In Deutschland

P has moved to Germany! This is a place to share with loved ones the pleasures, frustrations, and photographs of my adventures, leavened by talk of meals eaten and drinks drunk.

Biermobile!

I took this photo in Cologne over two months ago, and I can't believe I'm only posting it now. This, dear ones, is the most awesome vehicle of them all: the Biermobile. Powered by bicyclists facing a bar with a duded up gent serving beer in the center, festooned with an oversized steering wheel behind the barrel in front, and made for good times. Love!

Hi P,
Is the idea of the Biermobile to sweat the alcohol off, so you can drink more? Much better concept than Cafe 210! Sandya -take note!
Love,
M

Awesome! I know what Joe and I will be doing when we visit you both. Glug glug glug glug... only I'm a little disturbed how it seems like everyone is holding on for dear life, like they could be thrown off at any minute. So if you take too long a sip of beer, do you fall off?!?

I saw one of those ride by while I was in Amsterdam. People were wasted and loud but it looked fun.

I contemplated jumping on and seeing where the ride would take me but I paused one second too long and alas the bierbicycle was gone forever.

This wouldn't fly in Thailand as everyone is too lazy to pedal much less walk. You would need air-con and a few 'Punes' to pedal for the hi-so's to contemplate quaffing a brew.
