Bochum

After a relaxing evening Friday I decided to go out to Bochum for the free open air music festival. The navi said it would take about an hour to get there and I would of made it in that time too if the autobahn didn't turn into a parking lot for no reason on a Saturday afternoon. Seriously, there wasn't even construction. For some reason, even though all of the roads are the best I have ever driven on there is a lot of construction here. But I suppose that's why all of the roads are in such good condition.

When I finally got to Bochum I parked where I could...
Then I wandered around the city for a while. I found this sweet tower/church and some not so Native Americans.
Some of the music was all right. I saw this crazy polish beat boxer who was hilarious. There were quite a few scary goth people wandering around (imagine Romper Stomper outfits with mohawks), but the eclectic mix of styles in the city was very interesting to view. Eventually when my legs started getting tired I wandered back to my car then went home to do some reading/play video games. My buddy loaned me 'Into the Wild' and I am almost done with it. I haven't decided if I like the movie or book better yet, but I think a road trip across the US would be an excellent idea. Although I am not nearly dumb enough to try and live off the land in Alaska so don't worry. It is interesting though when I consider that every weekend I go someplace different here, but at home I hardly go anywhere...
