Our old friends from Poole ( the male half has requested anonymity!) joined us for a super meal in a restaurant not far from us. We stayed the night so a fair amount of booze was sunk. It was altogether a super night!
Mum insisted on cooking us lunch although the roast chicken in a bag obviouslyrequired a lot less cooking time. Then we went on a shopping spree to Waitrose as we had £20 worth of vouchers to spend. Much as I’m usually rather underwhelmed by supermarket shopping, Waitrose in full Christmas mode is pretty amazing.
Now we’re in Berlin in a “boutique” hotel which I’m rather horrified to discover was one the Stasi HQ! Once you know this a corridor, which would be quite normal in a modern hotel, starts to look sinister. I suppose our Junior suite was once 4 cells. What horrors and pain have been lived here? Will I sleep tonight?
On a lighter note the Christmas lights in Potzdammer Platz looked stunning on our way from airport. Off on a free walking tour tomorrow
