Germany's Bild newspaper quoted a holiday companion, identified only as Paul H, who said he and the 73-year-old Fritzl had traveled to Thailand together twice and spent time in each other's homes. "He went [to Thailand] without his wife; apparently she had to look after the children... once he had a very long massage from a young Thai girl at the beach. He really loved that," Paul H told the newspaper, which featured video footage of Fritzl laughing and receiving a massage in Thailand on its Web site. "Once I saw how Josef bought an evening dress and racy lingerie for a very slim woman in Pattaya [Thailand] on the beach. He got really angry when he realized I saw him. Then he told me that he has a girlfriend on the side. The items were meant for her. He told me not to tell his wife." The pair had also ventured to Oktoberfest. Paul H said he had visited Fritzl's house three times, the last in 2005. "We sat out on the terrace and had a really nice evening... the kids were well behaved, however, they had a great respect for their father. They were never allowed downstairs into the cellar but we never thought anything of it," he told Bild. "Now that I think of the dungeon down there, I feel really sick in the stomach." Paul H said Fritzl was a DIY "genius," constantly extending and building on to the house. Meanwhile, family members at the center of the incest and imprisonment case have held an "astonishing" reunion, medical officials said. "They met each other on Sunday morning," clinic director Berthold Kepplinger told reporters Tuesday. "And it is astonishing how easy it worked, that the children came together and also it was astonishing how easy it happened that the grandmother and the mother came together." Investigators say Fritzl held his daughter, Elisabeth, captive in a cellar for 24 years. He raped her repeatedly, they say, and eventually fathered seven of her children. Elisabeth and two of her children were reunited Sunday with three of her other children and her mother, Kepplinger said Tuesday. The three children and her mother lived in the home above the cellar. Elisabeth's eldest child, 19-year-old Kerstin Fritzl, remains in hospital. A seventh child died years ago, shortly after birth. Fritzl told police he burned the infant's body in a furnace. The story of the family's imprisonment began to unravel a week ago, when Kerstin fell seriously ill with convulsions and was hospitalized. Austrian police Wednesday denied reports that they were investigating possible links between Fritzl and the unsolved murder of a woman. Franz Polzer, director of the Lower Austrian Bureau of Criminal Affairs, said Fritzl had owned an Austrian hotel near where a woman was found murdered decades ago. However, they were not investigating the incident at this stage. Meanwhile, an Austrian girl who was held prisoner in a basement for eight years said the family faced a long period of adjustment.
