30 Mai 2009 - Berlin

A full day-- full of family, food, and rain. Thank goodness I brought my rainboots.

My day began with this pastry for breakfast-- ein Igel (a hedgehog). It was so cute, that I almost couldn't eat it.

My next stop was a Grillfest with cousins, friends, and neighbors.

There was lots of meat (including lamb kidney, which is apparently a delicacy here in Germany) and lots of wonderful company!

My next stop was shopping in berlin with S, a feat made much more difficult by the hordes of Fußball (soccer) fans that crowded everywhere. The rain didn't stop them, common decency didn't stop them-- the green-and-white people were everywhere.

We ended our shopping excursion at the Kaufhaus des Westins (KaDeWe), a HUGE store at the end of the Kudamm. After looking at the some of the many floors of the store, we made it to the top and enjoyed crepes with vanilla creme-- S's favorite.
