Ich bin ein Berliner

so this last week was berlin, eating at cookies&cream (who was that mysteriously hot waiter, anyway? he needs to call me), and incredible hawaiian vegeburgers at yellow sunshine (is everyone in berlin vegan?); unsuccessful shopping trips, incredible museums, loads of architectural good times.
