These 2 pictures were the view from where we heard an outdoor Tchaikovsky concert on Saturday night....
Yesterday we went to this free cool outdoor karoake concert. 1000 people sitting in an amphatheatre listening to whoever was brave enough to sign up. Some were too brave! Some were fabulous. Because it is Germany they sold beer and then collected bottles...all organized clean fun. And it happens every Sunday.

Berlin is a much more exciting city than I thought it would be. Hersh and I would be happy to stay as long as possible, but we do have a reservation in Venice for the 28th of this month which might be hard to give up and find later dates for. So I obsessively started searching last night for Austrian resorts on lakes Sierra could swim (her one request ongoingly--swimming please!). After several hours of gluing myself to the computer I found an area and possible location. Going off to bed, I thought -- oh no! This is Austria in the mountains...sure enough Hersh looked up the water temperature and it is only 16 degrees!! And you know how fond I am of cold water...I think I wll wait a day before venturing back into internet research!
We are off to some shopping, another view of these amazing 4 foot chocolate sculptures, up the iconic radio tower for tea and cake, by the Holocaust memorial, and down to an Ethiopian restaurant to enjoy dinner with all of our home exchange family adult kids to dinner.
Here is a video clip taken at the Holocaust memorial -- slightly irreverent, but hopefully enjoyable for you.
