Day 5

We spend nearly the entire morning putting away all of the belongings from our boxes.  We were all pleasantly surprised that nothing (computers and screens) were broken and everything was just as we had packed it.
Kim actually loves organizing things and really hates clutter.  She helped so much with motivation and moving things along.  Plus, she knows I need so much help in this area and she can say things to me like, "Do you consider THIS folded?"  Then proceeds to completely rearrange my wardrobe in a way I would never have time or interest in doing.  The top two shelves are Marty's, by the way.  See the difference in the folding?  Who knew we were such bad folders 😏

Marty and Benjamin set up Marty's office and Josie happily organizes her room.

We meet Micha and Julie for a delicious dinner of doner kebaps.   Doners are a lot like Greek Gyros but even better and so very cheap.  There are Kebap stands everywhere.  Full dinners for all of us plus a drink each was 25 Euro total.  Berlin really is so much cheaper than Seattle in EVERY way.
After dinner we head to another very cool park near Julie and Micha's apartment.  There is no end of creativity in Berlin Parks and again, way more physically challenging than American parks.


We think that the Germans just don't worry about being sued if someone gets hurt as Americans do.  The video of this is not loading but after they walk over the sticks to the left outside part of the structure they jump off.  Marty is 6 foot 5 so you can tell by where his head is while standing on the ground how tall this really is.  The kids LOVED it!!
