Today was a longish day. I rode from the campground to Paderborn, Germany. Lots of unrestricted superslab. I really do love the German Autobaun, though I recognize that I'm going to need to get a quieter helmet and/or start wearing earplugs (as opposed to my -15dB earbuds); being allowed to go however fast you like is glorious but noisy.
I got a room at the Ibis Paderborn, then quickly changed into civilian clothes and went out to find dinner. Found a nice biermarkt nearby with a variation on the port knuckle, but the typical good dark beer.
And, well, I pissed someone off.
Being back in Germany from Scandinavia, I'm back online after a century (okay, 3 days) of not having a local SIM in my iPhour and my iPad. I sat on the relatively unbusy patio/sidewalk and ate my dinner while catching up on Facebook, email, news of the world, and my blog posts.
Apparently, some guy sitting behind me was getting terribly confused about my actions with my iPad, and decided to complain to management that I was ruining his dining experience. Management happily sat him at the next table over, and switched his angle of attack to face a few tables of happy laughing people.
I paid and left not long afterwards. The guy was a bit shabby, and the wait staff apologized to me and suggested that he was just plain crazy. :)
