The other day I’ve been to Dresden, or more exactly to Radebeuel, known as the birthplace of Karl May, the German writer of Wild West novels. I had to host a training in a depressingly hot room with lots of PC equipment and beamers and 11 attendees plus my colleague and myself. The schedule allowed us a quick visit to the city of Dresden shortly before our return flight started.
I have never been to Dresden before, but I had to admit it is a very beautiful town, set into the valley of the river Elbe very much like my own hometown on the river Mosel. Of course a visit to the freshly rebuilt Frauenkirche was mandatory – the chill down the spine however did not come, despite my knowledge of the churches past. It was impressing – yes – but less moving than I expected.
On the flight back I had time to listen into my freshly downloaded music from CC Hits – thanks to my noise cancelling headset. And when we broke the cloud ceiling, I just listened to “All along the chilltower” by the Hot Bitch Arsenal – and experienced a perfect moment with a spectacular view. Check out CC Hits – I assume there’s something for you as well.
