It took quite a while to reach Koenigsberg and I was worried that I might not find a hotel that was open. Probably due to the public holiday the streets were full of reelers. I picked the grandest looking hotel but inside it proved to be rather grim and the room was awful. I walked around the town for a while looking for something to eat but though all the bars were packed nothing looked inviting. I decided to try the hotel and ended up pushing my way to the counter of the Irish pub off the lobby and ordering a bottle of beer which I took to my room
