Greetings from the Syrtaki restaurant on the niederdorfer hauptstrasse in herzogenaurach Germany. (Http://.syrtaki-online.de) .
I wandered into this place after a run in the rain. I have taken a really nice trail from here to the next town where I’m giving a talk tomorrow. the rain caught me on my way back towards the hotel. Right before I got back I found this really nice looking Greek place. I walked in soaking wet in my running stuff and asked if I could get takeout. The guy looked at me and said you should eat here. So I sat down and ordered what turned out to be the best meal I’ve eaten all year. Seriously. The guys there for so nice and welcoming even though I look like a drowned rat.

As I got up one of the guys noticed that I was wearing a green shirt… It’s the Helio’s shirt that Max gave me after burning man.

It turns out that one of the guys who work at the restaurant really likes burning man so you get me a beer and retsina. What a fantastic place. I’m going to try to go back there again tomorrow night !

Big talk tomorrow… Wish me luck!

Night all, night Sam
