So, I walked down to the Staabi today to get some work done...but it turns out the Musik department is closed on Saturdays.
So I spent all day walking around. I took a tour of Berlin, I wandered the Christmas market, went to the bookstore, etc.
Walking is great, it is beautiful. I love walking. Walking means I can also drink alcoholic beverages...like the Glühwein (hot spiced wine) of the Christmas market...and I had roasted almonds and a Bratwurst...It was great. Here is the problem with walking though. My best German ex told me to bring my Army boots...saying that it was super cold. So I did...but it turns out that the heels on my Army boots are totally worn down from lots and lots of walking and they are causing me fatigue in the knees. So now my body hurts. I wish I could get my shoes resoled...but I only have the one pair of shoes with me and I'm sure the shoe repair place would want to keep the shoes overnight. Bah!
It has been snowing lightly...not enough to stick to the ground, but enough to be pleasant. I took some photos...but I should probably go walking again and take more photos.
I am totally tempted to buy a new pair of shoes...cuz this is really bugging. But I feel like I need to manage my spending...especially after this last trip to the bookstore. But on the plus side, I did get a copy of this DVD that has Comedian Harmonists in it. Of course, to watch it, I have to make an all-region DVD back-up. See...there are legal uses of that technology. But before I can do that, I'll have to make more space on my hard drive.
By the way...I finally picked up Nina Hagen's first album. Ha!
