How cool can life be when you are eating at a table of the Meerbar right underneath some
Gehry designed buildings and the Rhine River rolls next to you. The
Meerbar was filled with the,” Beautiful People”, of
Düsseldorf. Food and wine fantastic and you are with the guy who runs the airport. My wine glass was never empty and the food super, yet it is the vibe that Düsseldorf has that is special. The sunny day turned into a night that had a warm breeze and the crack (conversation) was great. As our table of LA and NYC writers grew smaller the core group held on to our coveted spot and the waiter catered to our every want. This takes me back to the old days, when you feasted and dinner was an event. I even had a great surprise when one of the LA writers was a past travel mate. Between the super airport arrival with limo and private immigration in VIP lounge and this dinner, I got to feel like one lucky dude. To top it off the morning is on my own, a chance to seek out just what I want to, pinch me travel gods!

This sounds simply delightful! I, too, wish that dinner was more of an event!
Dinner is an event in Dusseldorf, especially through the summer months. Lived there for 2.5 years, worked about 50 meters from these buildings and still miss the place. Currently living in the pacific (Norfolk Island) and wouldn't move for quids. But each time I see a Frank Ghery building, ich habe heimweh fur Duesseldorf.
