I kept my packing for the morning. Gor ready in record time to find that I had more than an hour to spare. Such joy!Being given a lift to the airport. Lucky me. I am so blessed. Winning the carousel bet at the airport. Not just that... we got back to the hotel in record time! My […]

This trip has almost happened for several years. Generally it’s around Christmas time…. that’s a tough one.

Meeting a wonderful 91 year old lady. She was so willing to model. Loved it.A walk through the neighbourhood and a history lesson. Olaf is so knowledgeable. Photographing a family.My train karma still holding strong. Offering my seat to a lady and her lovely baby. Her older daughter wanted some attention too. Getting to see […]
Unpacking. Finally. Glad I got to stop living out of a suitcase.Off to see the parliament. And old stone facade and a modern marvel within. Loved the dome. Loved the views. Thinking of Adrian Francis and being grateful for all I learned. Realising that I'm finally in a city where history left such a deep […]
A beautiful palace and palace grounds.Great photo opportunities, some of them mine. Finding a great travel buddy. Talking with the family. Glad they had a great time. Flowers for an old lady. Watching the German women's football team win and an old lady keeping score with her pencil and paper. Tech-upgrade. Swipe not press. Glad […]
Seeing the dark side of the Berlin. Glad I kept my cool and didn't engage with the angry, shouty lady. A long walk in the beautiful Charlotten park. Such beautiful flowers, such symmetry. A snide 1 liner from a 91 year old on how the palace existed beause of a man who didn't want his […]
Work. Offloaded from the rest of the days. Time to get some more of Berlin! A possible bonus. Whooo hooo hoo. A very thoughtful gift accompanied with "This had your name on it" Awwwwww.
Red as they come. A Picasso jumper and a red dress. What more does one need. Pity the little boys in the train were so awe struck!Doing what is not usually done. Hanging around museum island without really entering a single one. A dinner where the stars were German dishes. So happy to have tasted […]
Convincing my team of the way ahead.Travel ban, but we might be able to make it. A rude bastard walk. So glad I made it. Walked for hours though sites I'd already seen, but the extra history and cussing was worth it. Used public transportation all by myself today. Such joy at being independent. Thunderstorm […]
Remembering Nana on her birthday right from when the day startedPlan approved. Hope the team is happy. It will be good to see them together. A free trip to the zoo.... we got lucky! So many wonderful, weird animals to watch. Such good company and some interesting conversations that would never have happened otherwise. Getting a non-sports […]
Search for lunch took me to a TKMaxx and some cool stuff. Taking it easy instead of trying to cram more sightseeing into the day. A fabulous new experience of a classical concert in an Olympic stadium. The rain added a whole new dimension. Love how music made the sky clear up. Indira Gandhi.... not […]
