So the night we got in from Aarhus we went to the "Red Light District" of Hamburg. Really nothing to mention about it except everything that the name implies which wouldn't be surprising and therefore is unexciting. One thing I will note though is the SF hipster fashion of wearing fanny packs and headbands is the fashion accessory of choice for prostitutes here. Not one prostitute I saw was without a fanny pack at least. I like to think they're safe sex kits and full of condoms, but I think they keep their money in them. (sigh.) But way to go fashionista-wise! I guess that goes both ways- for hipsters who dress like Northern German hookers and to Northern German hookers for really keeping functional fashionable.
While walking around Claudi, Anne and I came across this weird scene of the police wrestling some guy to the ground with a small crowd watching. But the whole thing sort of moved in silence. It was strange. Except for the photojournalist in a wheelchair who let my friend Anne know that none of her photos would come out because she wasn't using a flash. Anyway here are my photos that came out without flash.
There's the photographer in the wheelchair (middle) and the "crowd" which included a film crew. Perhaps this was a for TV?
