Reunited at last...tantamount to the east and west coming together...our own little sphere encompassing two distinct hemispheres...together , once again, in Berlin. It was a little tearful, a little melodramatic, a little Meg Ryan...you get the picture.
We dropped off Jason´s things in Charlottenburg and then headed to the Biergarten in the Tiergarten near the Neue See for some refreshment and a walk afterwards:
Sorry to miss so many days since the above but we´ve been catching up and I have been whirling Jason around the town...you understand.
The next evening we were invited to Magdeburg by Armin. A college there where deaf students are in attendence and hearing students are studying to become interpreters. We all crammed into a car for the hour and a half drive: Jason, me, Armin, Niki and Durk; and we headed for an annual festivital with bier and bratwurst and music. A band named Signmark, from Sweden, had a deaf rapper performing on an outside stage. We left about 2 in the morning and, thanks to Niki, got back to Charlottenburg about 4am.
Friday night we attended a performance of Tanz der Vampire, a grusical by Roman Polanski. It was actually fun to try to parse the action: the first big number was about garlic. The whole show had all your Vampire elements and a bit more. Quite a visual spectacle; sometimes, so over the top it was hilarious...I won´t ruin the ending for you, in case you should ever catch it.
Stay tuned...this morning too much work preparing this blog entry with uploading video and pics and all...you will just have to return... photo albums Amsterdam 6.6.2007, and Berlin 6.10.2007.
