Berlin, We'll Always Have...

Things I will always remember about Berlin:
  • Einfahrt means exit. teehee!
  • East and West are two very distinct areas, even though they are no longer divided by the Wall. 
  • The dairy here rocks -- we all indulged in too much yogurt, cheese, milk and ice cream.
  • Too much currywurst can be a bad thing.
  • Mass transit works on the honor system with occasional ticket checks; a risk-lovers paradise. 
  • Seeing Nazi-used buildings has a chilling effect on one's blood. 
  • While seeing the remnants of The Wall is awe-inspiring. 
  • Schmuck translates to jewelry in German. Heh. 
  • When done right, the renovation of a 15th-century neo-baroque building can be beautiful.
  • A mall is just a mall, whether it's in Berlin or Paramus. 
  • Telling time on the 24 hour clock annoys David to no end. Me: "It's 14:10 already!" Dave: "Grrrrrr, don't you mean 2:10?" Me: "No."  Hehe


Happy Anniversary, Carol and Allan!!! Three years went by fast!
