New Berlin (and Batman Begins)

---

After the Swiss mishap, we had to take a few more trains than usual in order to get to Berlin, where we are now. We arrived after 15 hours on the train (6pm - 9 am). Yesterday me and Jen walked around Mitte and ended up at Berlins Sony Center, the epicenter of Berlins reconstruction project. There we saw Batman Begins. Ill have to see the first one again, but I think this is by far the best Batman movie.

Memorial to "Murdered European Jews"
Stunning and controversial. Jen's not so sold on it. I think it captures the ugliness of what its trying to depict.

Marx....Engels....Wood
yay Communism!
