Hard Rock Cafe Munich



After Cologne, I got on German ICE, and visited Munich. There were so many tourists along the main street. I enjoyed German dishes with beer at famous plaza.

At next day, I made a day trip to the suburb of Munich. The target was to see Neuschwanstein Castle. The castle was very beautiful in the mountain. I enjoyed the gorgeous interior inside the castle.

HRC Munich was located near famous beer restaurant called as HOFBRAUHAUS. I bought some pins, and enjoyed talking with a staff.

Hard Rock Cafe Cologne



In 2004, after I enjoyed Paris for 5 days, I got on Thalys for Cologne.
When I arrived to Cologne station, I was so surprised that I could see the famous Cathedral from the inside of station !! It was like the Cathedral was looking at me from outside.


The Cathedral was so huge, and I could feel the power of it. I went to the top of it, and enjoyed the view of Cologne.

Cologne was not a big city, but there were so many interesting things that could attract me.

Of course, I visited HRC Cologne.

I had dinner at HRC Cologne. The cool interior of this cafe was one of the best in my Hard Rock life. I enjoyed the mood of HRC Cologne, and had great meal.


Fortunately, they just release 1st anniversary that used the famous cathedral on it.
I love this pin !!

Hard Rock Cafe Guam



In 2003, I just visited 1 HRC. This was the only trip I did in 2003 !!!

Anyway, I got enough miles to get free ticket, so I decided to go to Guam for vacation.
I stayed there for a week, and it was long enough to enjoy Guam.
Everyday, I enjoyed swimming in the beautiful sea, and went to some of shopping mall to have meal.
While I was in Guam, I saw 5 movies there, I was really happy that I could see some of new movie before they came to Japan later.

Of course, I visited HRC Guam every night. This HRC was located along the famous street, so nobody would miss to find this cafe.

Around HRCs, there were not only many stores but many restaurants. At the HRC, I could trade many of Japanese pins with many staffs who were so friendly. I had a good holiday in Guam.

Hard Rock Cafe Lake Tahoe



After long drive in the mountain area, I finally arrived to Lake Tahoe that had been one of the famous resort area.
I found the sign of HRC at the building that had Casino & Hotel inside.



It was late night(around 0;00AM), so I checked in the motel near HRC, and walked into the building.


I hardly saw people inside because it was out of holiday season here, and then I found HRC Lake Tahoe.

This cafe looked very unique with Lodge style that I really liked. I was so tired after doing long drive through mountain, so I returned to the motel, and took enough rest for next day. At next day, I could see the beautiful view of Lake Tahoe. I could refresh my mind, and went back to SFC.

Hard Rock Cafe Sacramento



After SFC, I visited Sacramento only for HRC.


HRC Sacramento

I had to leave here for Lake Tahoe soon, so I just bought some pins, and took photos. I hardly saw people in downtown of Sacramento at that time, but I was surprised that there were so many people inside HRC. I felt the popularity of HRC there.

Hard Rock Cafe San Francisco



On the way back from Mexico, I arrived to San Francisco. Before this, I visited SFC twice, but I had never visited the former HRC San Francisco.

I rent a car at SFC airport, and went to Pier 39. I finally visited HRC San Francisco that had been reopen at the Pier 39.


HRC San Francisco

This location was one of the best in my Hard Rock Life. HRC was just located at the entrance gate of famous tourist area "Pier 39", so there were so many tourists inside this cafe.
Instead of that good location, this HRC itself was one of the worst in my Hard Rock Life. I just didn't like the interior as well as the appearance. I got some pins, and ate fish&chips at other restaurant.
And then I left there for next HRC.
