Der “eerste echte dag”Und so starten wir mit frischem Tee, dreierlei Melone, Gouda (Goudies?), weichen Eiern und dreierlei Baguettes in unseren ersten richtigen Escape-Tag. Unsere Reise führt uns in den Osten an die Grenze zu Eindhoven – nach Zoersel, einem kleinen, sehr verschlafen wirkenden Ort, an dem man keine Escape-Räume…
…a Weekend Busters Story Anreisetag 29. Mai – es ist ein früher Start in den Urlaub – tendenziell so wie ein “normaler” Arbeitstag – also sind Juli und ich gegen 06:15 bereit uns von den Mietzen zu verabschieden und machen uns auf in Richtung Bahnhof. Knapp verpassen wir den 06:35…
Our last day in Barcelona for this vacation was at hand. We still had two of the total ten planned rooms for today up, two other rooms as we originally had twelve in preparation were cancelled due to lack of GM availability. So what was left to see? A marvellous…
Were we aware how intense this day will be? No, not by a long shot, but we had four rooms planned, so we started with a quick breakfast on our way to our first room. The location of the breakfast was reasonable, but the service rather unmotivated so I won’t…
Relaxing. 2×2 days and games, we take the saturday for sight-seeing. The weather is perfect, as it really was for all days during our stay, we neither got wet not sunburn (with protection) and could use every day to walk through the city in the last week of May. So…
So, our seventh day already – but the second one for escape games and intense sightseeing. This morning we take a bit slower and arrive around 1100 with the bus for a fruity, intense and colorful brunch at Zenith. Our Highlight? The sangria. Our learning? Wow – how busy can…
Our fifth day in Barcelona starts with a good breakfast at Latocafe. Their El Nino Toast in combination with Mimosas ensures smiles, I have to admit the quality of the food was excellent, but they should reconsider “unlimited” Mimosas, while two of us picked right that deal, they were not…
Our quarters were superior to Barcelona by the looks but not acoustics, so after a rather rough night, we started slow and picked us a good bakery for a snack-breakfast. The “PI” was lovely in many ways, disappointed on the absence of any hearty snacks, but the store and people…
Short night, day bright? At least we leave when the rain comes and we have perfect travel conditions to Madrid! The ride to Madrid Atocha at up to 302km/h is crazy fast and at the same time: smooth. The landscapes are rewarding and show a variety of hills, different geological…
A good night of sleep is everything you need. Barcelona was calling, so we had to heed her call. It seems rather not worth to consider getting up early in a city where breakfast cafés open around 10:30. We jumped into the metro L9 to Marina and took a short…
