Weimar - nach Gropuisstraße

Hurray, Weimar! New experiences awaits me - it's now 7.53pm and the sun is still up. I will be staying in Weimar for two nights, and will only be leaving on Monday afternoon. Because Weimar is a Kulturstadt (culture state), not only because of Franz, but also because Weimar represents the centre of German Literature. Goethe, Schiller and other famous German authors/poets once lived here.

Took a bus from the Hauptbahnhof to Gropuisstraße coz it was too far away. Alighted at the right street, but where to go next? There was some difficulty locating the hotel, but a question or two from the people on the street soon solved the problem. This always happen to me - I was actually walking in the opposite direction! Gosh, I forgot to bring my map-reading skills with me before I left for Germany. Tsk.
