After two relatively painless and on-time flights (and making it through the maze of CDG Airport in Paris), I got to Berlin’s Tegel airport around noon on Sunday. Instead of going to Eberhard and Elke’s place in the city, Eberhard took me directly to their place by the lake. Actually, it’s two small houses across the street from each other, both with gardens producing parts of tonight’s dinner- plums, apples, carrots, potatoes, and tomatoes. The salad at lunch came from a nearby farmer—local eating seems to be the norm here!
After lunch and a nap, it was time to enjoy the lake- kayaking and swimming. There were a few other people out on the water, but it wasn’t so crowded for a weekend. The weather’s been perfect- warm and sunny during the day, and then cool enough to have dinner outside by a fire. Very relaxing first day so far! (pictures will come eventually….)
