Hooray for the Symphony!

Wonderful afternoon attending this:

 

Carl Orff: Carmina Burana & Beethoven's 9th

The Berlin Philharmonic Hall was kray-kray. Looking for other hoity toity things to do while we're in Berlin. Your suggestions?

Ooooh, the insanity....

It's difficult to blog whilst in transit. I'll work on posting from my brain. We left Aurora hostel and I attended my first couch-surfing "meeting". It was a bit too much for me and I was overwhelmed by the whole evening. Lorenzo did all the work and by the end of the night we had a place to crash - and that's an whole 'nother story altogether. Got our ducks in a row and now staying at an interesting place that i'll tell you about later. Should be here for another week or two (or three or four?) and i'll be able to post pictures, soon.

We went exploring yesterday and saw some of the most amazing graffiti but when I took my camera out I discovered that it was either broken, or the battery was completely drained. Let's hope for the latter, please!  Up early trying to buy tickets for the symphony (Beethoven's 9th this afternoon). Not having any luck. Brain too tired for word things, too.

Better updatez, soon! 

Colours of the Rainbow

A Prenzlaur Room with a View - and a new obsession with selectively colored photos

Berlin Botanical Garden

There are far too many photos to upload to Blogspot so I'm sending you to look at the gallery via Dropbox.  Enjoy.

Sweet Dreamz!

A few random pictures from the neighborhood. Fo' Shizzle.

Leaving the hostel today - on to the next adventure.

Pictures from the Botanical Garden coming soon!

Brandenburg

 

The bulk of my New Years Celebration pictures were blurry, just like this one. 

The Aftermath

I can't name the number of times we probably almost died walking to and from...the Turks were out of control, the kids had all lost their minds (& probably a few fingers), and champagne bottles still litter the streets. A fantastic night. Cheers to 2012!

Simply Put: It was like a war zone in Berlin.
