Travelog for: Beate

Hey Mommy,

today we boarded the kitchen!
First we formed the meat into balls that Chrissy could bake it. We think Tapsi stole some of the meat. Then we mixed some milk with different ingredients. While Chrissy stired everything and I checked if she did it correct, Tapsi was searching for something to eat in the bag of the ingredients. Crazy lion! We added the mixture to the balls. Chrissy cut the cheese and we put it on the top of everything. Then we waited for a long time... et voilà... it was delicious!!!

Hello Mom,

today we welcomed a new tv. His name is Joe. He looks like Chrissy. Maybe they are twins?!





Yours, Beate

Hey Mummy,

today we wanted to do a big sightseeing tour, but it was raining until noon and started again after a short time. So it was a short day for me outside.

First we went to the Oberbaum Bridge. From here we had a fantastic view to the East Harbour section of the river Spree. On the left side you can see the buildings of Mediaspree, like Universal Music Headquarters (Germany), MTV Central Europe and TV Dockyard. On the right side you can see the Treptowers and the TwinTowers. And in the middle of the river Spree you can see Molecule Men. These thirty meters high metal sculpture was designed and executed by the American sculptor Jonathan Borofsky. Symbolically, they represent the intersection of the then three districts Treptow, Kreuzberg and Friedrichshain.


We walked along the East Side Gallery. It is the longest open air gallery in the world. The art mile is located along the banks of the river Spree in Friedrichshain. It is 1316 meters long and it is also the longest segment of the Berlin Wall that is still standing. Right after the fall of the Berlin Wall, the East Side Gallery was painted by 118 artists from 21 different countries. Using various artistic means, the artists commented on the political events that took place in 1989 and 1990 in over 100 works of art found on the eastern side of the wall.
In the course of the years, many of the images became greatly weathered and, in 2009, forty of these works of art were restored.


Our last stop was the o2 World. It was opened in September 2008, a modern multi-function arena setting new standards for Berlin. Up to 17,000 people can attend the concerts – then the stands can be converted to a sporting arena within a few hours after they leave.
The o2 World is particularly suited to large and spectacular shows, such as “Walking with Dinosaurs”, which features life-size dinosaur replicas. Concerts are also provided for by the ultramodern technology and video projections. The arena is also the home of the national league basketball club ALBA Berlin and the ice hockey team Eisbären Berlin.



By the way. It is cold in Berlin, but it is still not snowing!

Love, Beate

Hello Mom,

today we did a short stopover at the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe, also known as the Holocaust Memorial. It is a memorial to the Jewish victims of the Holocaust. It consists of a 19,000 square metres site covered with 2,711 concrete slabs or "stelae", arranged in a grid pattern on a sloping field. The stelae are 2.38 m long, 0.95 m wide and vary in height from 0.2 to 4.8 m.


When we came home in the evening there was an envelope waiting for us.


Chrissy and Joe took the scissor to open it. They were afraid of cutting somebody or something inside. But nothing happened...


Chrissy and Joe crawled into the envelope. Tapsi and I had to help them out of it.


When they came out of the envelope they had a new tv in their arms. His name is Greeny delMonte. I think he is a nice guy.

Hello Mum,

today we found a colorful envelope at hour hosts home.


We opened it carefully and saw something red inside. We were a little bit afraid.


It was Crawfish in the envelope. She came the long way from the US. And she had something sweet to eat for us.


Yours,
Beate
