First longer Hitchhike (1st day)

Time to leave Berlin for some days, at least 3 weeks to go for some vacations i thought and so did I. I went to S Nikolasee to leave Berlin by catching a lift southwards. Get out my label signed with Leipzig i began trying to catch some chances to jump on a car which will take me as far as possible, my aim: the very popular (in the eyes of foreigners) Frankfurt am Main. Fortunately after 20 minutes a couple catched me and took me. Always people have a reason to take you, so they remembered the good old days when they hitchhiked in the past. Fine, Fine - so i got to the near of Leipzig. Carrying on i tried my luck to go further to Erfurt. I met another hitchhiker watching for a lift and hooked up with him. The guy was quite experienced and could get a lift for us both further to Erfurt and than another to get on another Autobahn, i was amazed. Near of Erfurt i had to attest what i learned from that lesson. So i started asking people at the gas station to take me. Short time later i got to known Richard, another hitchhiker. So, finally we could arrange a ride together to go to Frankfurt. Quite successfull day: 4 rides within short time, no money left, 7 hours only!

So i reached Frankfurt at around 7pm and hooked up with my old surfer buddy Bastl. We once met at a surfing course in Portugal, so its was a good moment to see him again. We drunk Roter Rauscher, updated us recently and exchanged some new ideas about the future. So i am curious, whether Bastl will go on these Big Yacht Sailing soon (Keep in touch man!)
