This weekend brought a nice night out with my flatmates on Friday and a 30 hour trip to Berlin with Gandalf. We used some special internet offer which got both of us to Berlin and back for €75 – which isn’t much more than the fuel cost would be, much quicker and less stressful than going by car. Also you can’t play GLTron while driving a car as you can do on a train.
In Berlin we were at Meike’s birthday party, visited Claus, had my brother come over who’s staying there for a few weeks. In the afternoon I met Yassin and we had a coffee at the Bundespressestrand. It’s a nice idea: they dumped some sand behind parliament in front of the little river, put some beach chairs on it and turned it into a beach café. (It does seem that the people who made this up are a little creepy, though, both politically and because of the silly pun of a name).
Then we caught or train back and returned. A nice little trip.
