A list

of things I'd like to do while I'm in Berlin. Because the office is out for the rest of the day to observe national day. And I'm not (because I think it's silly).

In no particular order:

1. Mill about Brandenburg Gate for a bit and take a few photos.

2. Wander aimlessly through Die Berliner Museumsinsel.

3. Be a shameless tourist aboard a Trabi-Safari.

4. Pretend to understand the art in the Kunsthaus Tacheles.

5. Eat in the dark.

What about Prague? Everyone and his uncle has been telling me it's beautiful but getting far too commercialised. I'm thinking lots of beer (pivo), ice cream (zmrszlina) and desserts (moučníky), interspersed by casual sightseeing and gawking at the locals.

Does anyone else have that "From London to Berlin" song running through your head? I looked up the lyrics thinking that the only thing worse than having a bad song stuck in your head is to have just one line from a bad song stuck in your head. Clearly, today's not optimal for thought because I was dead wrong.
