Berlin Rocks!!!
I love Berlin! This city is awesome! I spent the night in a very nice hostel near the eastern center. This morning I went on a four hour walking tour. It is amazing how this city and the nation around it have lived through horrible repressive governments, yet today, just 16 years after the fall of the Berlin wall, thrives and prospers. Everyone speaks English too! Truely a wonderful city. Sometime soon, I hope to post photos!

Hey dude! That is so awesome you are having a blast!!! I don't know about Berlin itself, but I've always wanted to visit Germany--the Black Forest (conjures up magic in my brain!) and of course, Bavaria :0) can't wait to see your pictures!
Oh, and guess how weird this one is. I'm at my Grandma's in Spokane for the weekend, and I just found out that my Great-great?-Grandfather's family lived in Russia since Queen Catherine's era, when they probably came over with her from Germany to Russia, and then they fled in the late 1800s when they were persecuted for being German. Its been fascinating seeing pictures and learning more family history! I know virtually nothing about this side of the family, so I am pretty excited over here. Tomorrow I am going to Kinkos to make copies of old family pictures to start my own family album.
Keep having fun over there! And have fun with all the Aussies. I found them very nice and good company, except for the two redneck drunks in London who had a personal vendetta against America :) even though they didn't know why, except that "Americans are stuck up prigs." Yeah, whatevah.
