It's already been a crazy day in Hamburg for the Sony Ericsson Fanwalk, and it's incredible so far.

Everyone is starting to settle in with the other groups, which was helped by a "Speed Dating" session last night after dinner, whereby people had to run around the room, in a complete state of madness, to find out facts and interesting things about their fellow Fanwalkers from across the continent. Plus, some unlucky people had to answer questinons over the microphone about the people they just met with the Motivator (and arse-kicker, if you sleep in), Troy. You'd be surprised how fast people forgot the nuggets of knowledge that they just found out- but this will be easier during the week as everyone gets talking while walking, all of which kicks off in the coming few minutes here in Hamburg.

There are lots of sleepy Europeans in their rooms as I write, as many had a wild night with their new friends and arrived in the door only a few hours ago.  Many enjoyed a few drinks, a chit-chat and some mingling last night, and explored the city. Ireland has already rocked the dance floor of one nightclub, and then another, and then another. The Music Fans are venting their passion, and busting some moves- albeit, not always well.

Over the coming days you will see anything I capture with my Sony Ericsson W995 phone posted on www.fanwalker-david-o.blogspot.com. However, you should see it popping up here too on www.davidokeeffe.com, or on Facebook if you're reading from there.

Catch ya's on the flipside.
