Hi there, I just thought about writing about my evenings in the US during my biz trip over here...I started two postings already to learn a little bit about Albuquerque and Long Island....maybe someone out there is interested in some stories... EVENING 1: I can´t believe it, what happened yesterday evening, when I wanted to enter a pub place in Albuquerque...the lady at the door asked me to show my ID!!! Hallo?!?! I am 35 years old....but then I learned, that I MUST carry my ID with me, when enetering a pub/bar in New Mexico. In the first place, I just wanted to start the evening there in the "Fox and Hound", but after eating something, I was too jetlagged to continue the tour thru town. Anyway...lots of those funny - at least those guys think they are - balooners from the Balooning Festival where hanging out with their pins, caps and ugly ladies....so maybe not the best weekend to stay here. Lets see, what this evening brings... --> good hints are highly appreciated! Cool club, lounge or so would be nice. It would be great to meet some people out there to chat while sipping some drinks. Cheers, Janne
