Sommer?!

"Everybody talks about the weather but nobody does anything about it."
- Mark Twain

It's been a week since my last post, when we were at the beach, enjoying summer. Since then it's pretty been rainy and cold. I've been in the archive a few days, trying to time my bike commute between rain showers. Had Kaffee und Kuchen with a friend, saw a movie (Moonrise Kingdom = great)... Last night we celebrated a friend's birthday and ended up at another notorious Berlin techno club, the "Wilde Renate," until the sun came up. And then I picked today to do a 13 mi training run...So nothing much to post about besides the usual. [In truth, I am not a clubbing person...but Berlin is famous for having some of the best clubs in the world, so it's all part of the experience, right?] Time is slipping away much too quickly at this point. Still waaay too many things on the list-of-things-to-do-before-we-go. I'm starting to have new (more appreciative) eyes for everything as I realize I only have one more month. like the amazing Muesli I get to eat every morning, Laugencroissants [croissants-pretzel hybrid] from the bakery, just seeing people out and about on bikes and walking, the flea markets, markets, supermarkets within a 10-min walk, the architecture, the street names, even the cobblestones. :) So I will try to make the best of the bad weather (still better than the 100+ temps the US has been getting) and make every day count! one last month!
