Germany 2006 ..

Germany will be invaded this summer by millions of people who are going to attend the World Cup .Is this a chance to go to Germany or
you better take advantage of this event to visit other European destinations which might be less crowded and maybe less expensive then usual?

Good question. I think it applies more directly to Leipzig rather than the whole country and it probably depends on whether or not you're a soccer (football) fan. Everything will be more expensive in Leipzig - that's for sure. If you're thinking of booking a hotel, you should do it NOW.

By the way, a few weeks ago I posted an "external" bit with a link to an IHT article - see:

how hard is it to get world cup tickets?

it depends on how much you want to spend...If you have no problem spending whatever it takes yo ucan buy tickets even on Ebay. However I still dont know how do you get tickets.Usually is FIFA who does the selling campaign.If anyone gets any info about tickets let me know....

why, crimsonsky, are you thinking of going?

yes, slavito, i'd like to go. watching a world cup game is one of my life goals.

Not for this year, I guess...
