slycatWoke up early again for breakfast before popping my nose into the "DDR & More" event with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rasetsugalford but they were playing Guitar Hero so was relatively dull. I figured that event would have done better is scheduled for a much later evening slot. Instead, we went out to Nuremberg to take some touristy photos and also introduce Galford and mecklar to the Currywurst, comic shop and waffles I had experienced with arakinuk the day before. In fact, while we were out, we bumped into Arakin with reioki and her boyfriend at the comic shop. On the way back, Mecklar picked up a new suitcase and a wooden ornament souvenier. I bought some posh chocolate for myself and for the parents, as well as a gigantic 1l souvenir stein for my Dad.
Memory is starting to run dry now, but I made sure I watched the "Smoking Pencils" event which was 2 teams of artists competing against each other in various unconventional artistic challenges such as drawing an object you have only touched, building things with pipe cleaners and drawing by moving the paper while someone holds the pen.
After that event, we retired to the bar for some relaxation before the murder mystery resolution. I watched it, but realised I really hadn't been paying attention enough to understand most of it. Regardless, the whole thing was very well done and was a nice unique touch on the convention. After this, went downstairs for dinner before going to Nuremberg to get some energy drinks and stuff from the shopping centre with Arakin to prepare for the night's dance as I was so hopeless at keeping going during the previous dance.
By the time we got back, the puppet show was already in full flow. I couldn't gather the interest to go see it myself as a deep rooted part of me thinks that it's just a puppet show and I couldn't bring myself to be part of a large room of adults watching a puppet show. I porbably should have gone as apparantly it was very good. However, I ended up hanging out withtimduru, calihusky, hhp, lonefoxx (Single Speed Cheetah) and Furfinn.
When the dance finally started (was around an hour late due to the puppet show), I got suited up and had one of the best evenings I've had, dancing away with other furs. I tried to keep going as long as I could, but I was just totally knackered by around 2.30am and ended up sleeping through the rest of the dance as I had before.
