Left Heathrow at 17:15 friday and arrived in Hannover at 20 0, stayed with a friend on his army camp in Hohne
Didn't get asked for ID once. Gotta love the security 
Saturday we went to Heide Park, Soltau
Colossos - The Worlds Steepest Wooden Rollercoaster at 61degrees with a drop of 60metres. Totally awesome, easily the best coaster i've ever been on and i've done all the Orlando parks
Scream - 200ft freefall ride
Limit - pretty average Nemese type rollercoaster
Went on a few other rides, none of which were as good as the ones I posted. Only cost 25 euros, which is less than what most UK parks ask for in pounds. No queues either  http://www.heide-park.de
Saturday night we went to Ralf Schumacher's Kart&Bowl centre, Bispingen
Two tracks, one 1000m outdoor track, and one 600m indoor track. All the karts are painted in Toyoya F1 colours and the drivers all wear Toyota F1 style race suits. Was totally awesome, some serious money has gone into this facility. http://www.rs-kartcenter.de/start_e.htm Shame it was all booked up so I never got a chance to race 
Then Sunday we came home on a ferry from Cuxhaven to Harwich
Commodore Class = 1st Class 
18hours of pure sea sickness though! Or at least it would've been had I suffered from it. Horrible, horrible crossing!
So thats what I did this weekend!

One way flight to meet my mate who already lived over there, then we both drove back as he has a UK posting now.
