rickp13 Posted October 10, 2013 Share #341 Posted October 10, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) repeat from the ''dinner thread'' hello andy and fellow wetzlar challengers i have no choice but to ask you to remove us 2 from the tour, challenge and saturday dinner. karen was at the doctor yesterday, and is just not well enough to make the trip or do well on her own around home if i went alone. copenhagen was great. wetzlar with tour and 10th anniversary challenge was looking verrrrry interesting, but we have to miss. we'll move our planning to (hopefully) istanbul in 2014, and look forward to seeing you all there. kind regards rick & karen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LucisPictor Posted October 10, 2013 Share #342 Posted October 10, 2013 In Wetzlar now. Lots of slate tiled rooves. Would benefit from a drop of sunshine. Just got access to my hotel. Shower and lunch.Contact number for anyone wanting company for dinner this evening is +372 54 320880. Oh, since Wetzlar is only 60km away from where I live, I would have loved to meet you. But my wife is on a colleagues' dinner tonight and thus I have to babysit the kids. However, I'l see you on Saturday! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
photolotse Posted October 10, 2013 Share #343 Posted October 10, 2013 @erl: We've brought some sunshine with us from northern Germany and checked in at Bürgerhof Wetzlar, very close to "The Hof", a couple of minutes ago. Looking forward to meet other arrivals in the evening, too. Carsten and Dagmar Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

earleygallery Posted October 10, 2013 Share #345 Posted October 10, 2013 As I sit here at my desk (yes I really should be working not browsing) I feel that I should be there instead - in fact I would have been arriving in Wetzlar just about now It's very hard to take! Anyway, have fun everyone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wlaidlaw Posted October 10, 2013 Share #348 Posted October 10, 2013 I hope the WiFi at the Mercure in Wetzlar is better than the Mercure Panorama in Freiburg, where I am staying tonight. Dial up would be a treat in comparison. To cap it all it is quite an expensive "paid for" and not free service. I had to look up on my phone internet to find the address for the M3-Connect sign on page, as it was not popping up automatically, like it does everywhere else at other hotels. The kind lady at the front desk had put me through to M3's help desk, who kept asking me to open the control panel where I would see.......I told her five times I was using a Mac not Windows and did she not mean Network Settings in the System Preferences but it was not registering. She then told me off for not listening to her at which point I hung up. Wilson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stunsworth Posted October 10, 2013 Share #349 Posted October 10, 2013 Wifi in the Mercure is 9€ a day. No idea of it's fast or not, as I haven't used it. It's cheaper to use data roaming on the iPhone. As they'd say on Twitter #fail. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pop Posted October 10, 2013 Share #350 Posted October 10, 2013 Just arrived at the Wetzlarer Hof. Nice room, WLAN works out of the box and without any logging in at all. That may not be the most secure practice but it gets you online fast. The town is full of restaurants which have open and will serve meals until late in the evening.

John John, You could join the location app that Carsten very kindly set up if you have an idevice. See post further up this thread. You could then decide whether you cared to join a group on Friday night or were more sensible and avoided the rabble. Wilson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandokan Posted October 10, 2013 Share #355 Posted October 10, 2013 Hope you all have fun, good light and interesting skies.

photolotse Posted October 11, 2013 Share #360 Posted October 11, 2013 The Leica factory tour has been awesome, especially the new camera designs we have seen but are not allowed to talk about. We'll meet at 07.00h pm at "The Hof" again to stroll around the city and seeking an location to grab a drink and some food. Carsten and Dagmar Welcome, dear visitor!
