Was up till the early hours of sunday morning and slept late to make up for it. The sun was shining again after the heavy thunderstorm the night before, so I might as well enjoy the last summer days in Berlin. The bands at open air weekend concerts in the Tiergarten seemed great, so I took the bus there. And arrived just in time for the next jazz and soul concert. Munching on indian samosa and dhal, I was sitting on the meadows amidst lots of other relaxing people having picknicks, kids running around, friends chatting. I always love the crowd at Englischer Garten and Teehaus in Tiergarten.
One hour later, a fresh wind and huge clouds covering the sun got me anxious. The sky changed by the second, grey in the west, still blue in the east. I left just in time to find shelter at the bus stop before the heavy rain started.
At Zoo station I looked for some more presents for my hosts - no chance to find nice fridge magnets. So I bought a bottle of retsina, and went home. Listening to a great concert on Arte (Daniel Barenboim and the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra, live from the Alhambra in Granada), I chatted some and tried to find the best way of traveling around the world. Seems that return tickets are cheapest. And would allow me to water the flowers in my flat in between my trips. Hmmm.....
