Skylar and I will be spending five months (May - October) in Heilbronn, Germany with as much additional travel as we can. Here I will post updates and pictures from our adventures.

18 Juli - More Capoeira and travel

We don't usually go to Capoeira on Saturdays because the back to back train travel can be too much. We ride our bikes to the train station about 3 miles away and then carry our bikes down and up the flights of stairs at the station to get to the train. The d-bahn train ride to Stuttgart is about 45 minutes. Then we catch the local train, the s-bahn to Fellbach, which takes about 15 minutes. Then we ride our bikes, about 1 mile, to the Capoeira studio. Train for 2 hours and do the reverse back home. We both really like Capoeira though, so it's worth it.

Today, I thought we would try the bus to the station instead which would mean walking the mile to class. The biggest problem I have with buses is I hate waiting. I hate waiting for the bus and the train and all the connections... it gets me very agitated. 

Class was good as always though. Working out always makes my tension melt away. After class we decided to try another new place to eat. It was a Bistro. Nothing too exciting, but at least it was inexpensive. It was raining when we left and we walked through a street festival with music and food. We thought about staying, but decided we didn't really want to stand in the rain and longer than we had to. We went to a little cafe for dessert to get out of the rain for a few minutes and then walked the rest of the way to the station to catch the train back to Stuttgart and then home. 

The bus ride from the station to home didn't go as smoothly and took us about 3 connections with waits between each. I said we were not going to take the bus anymore.

Don't give up on the buses! I think it's awesome to ride your bike everywhere.
