BERLIN

My last night in Berlin: I was going to go to a symphony concert but I got caught in a crazy rain and was late. Then I went to see Skyfall instead and it was very long with 30 min of commercials at the start AND an intermission! But that is ok because in Germany you can have beer at the movies. You can have beer everywhere! On the way home I ran into my friend's friends on the Ubahn platform and they said "on you need this train" which I thought was the wrong direction but I figures "hey I guess a local dude knows better than I do." That was not true! It was the wrong direction. And the Ubahn closed for the night for track work! I found a bus to take me home but it terminated early so I waited for the next one. When I finally got back, my key broke in the door! No one answers when I yelled! I went to an Internet cafe to call my friend (she was staying at her gf's that nit) but her phone was off. I left frantic voice messages. I started to panic. What if I had broken the lock and everyone was locked in? What if I had to buy them a new lock and keys for the 15 ppl that live there?! I had to leave for the airport in 4.5 hours! I went back and banged and yelled "mein Schlussel ist kaput!" and finally someone answered and the door was not broken and we pulled the key out with some pliers and all was well in about 30 seconds. I returned to my friend's room, packed, slept 2 hours, then went to the airport. I upgraded my seat. I deserved it. Extra legroom ftw.
