ich bin ein berliner

today i went on a bike ride around lake starnberg and it was really cold and my fingers fell off. i didnt go around the whole lake but it was a significant ride i swear.

HAPPY 2009 this is germanys version of dick clarks rockin new years eve:

BERLIN. okay. so that is a huge city. so huge they have space to import a mountain for the kids to sled. i think its totally reasonable. if you've got the space, why not?


also this is exciting. if you have been to berlin this is old news but if you havent its interesting. or at least i thought so.

right?

here is some fancy store giving bergdorfs a run for their money as far as christmas decorating goes. or "holiday" decorating. there were also real deer (just joking)


were you wondering about anything else? let me know. it was sort of a long time ago and i dont really remember what i should talk about.

You should probably talk about boots.

Hi Margo,

Happy 2009!! Well, we've had ice storms, power-outages, and snow-bales, and we've all missed you.
Our family did watch Dick Clark's "Rockin' New Year's Eve" and Dick Clark is still rockin'...barely. Kind of like the U.S. But in just a few days, we hope to be rockin' again.

I think you should talk about German children (or South Afican children) vs. U.S. children. What are the similarities an differences.

Love, Nancy
