  • Yes, I had currywurst again.Don’t make this weird. The hotel room came with a drink voucher for some reason (because they don’t have a bar?) so something claiming to be local seemed like the way to go. Oh, and I…

  • A day, or at least some of a day, of being a tourist in Berlin. This one’s mostly photos. Slept … Badly, but also slept in a bit, which made up for it. The hotel has a push-button pancake making…
