Lions and tigers and Kevin...oh my!!!

March 24th.
(Kate.)
Anna and I woke up and I shared my dream from the night with Anna. Something about Chris Martin from Coldplay being my hairdresser and the receptionist at the salon didn't want me to see him any more, but I came in anyway and everybody ignored me there, so I tried to beat them all up, but they just laughed at me and then stole my purse.
After sharing it with Anna, I felt MUCH better. Cathartic release.
We checked out of the hotel, grabbed some breakfast and what next? Hop-on/Hop-off, of course!


It's us!

Fernseherturm. TV Tower.



Shhh! Don't tell Annabelle!

Brandenburger Tor. Brandenburg Gate.



The Berliner ZOO!!!!!



Anna and I still needed to burn a few hours before our train left at 7pm, so we decided it would be fun to go to the zoo...and it was AWESOME! I actually can't remember the last time I was at a zoo, and it awoke all those old feelings of wanting to become a veterinarian or a giraffe stablehand.




We also made a special friend....reminded us of Kyla.




He's a great listener.




Knut??? Ahh. Who knows. Who cares.



Pick up Giraffe poop? Yes. Feed the lions? No.

After a great day of Berlin touring and zoo visiting, it was finally time for us to catch the train back to Dresden.
And now we sit here in my cozy little apartment and ponder what we should do for the following days in Dresden. Much more to come....

(Anna.)
...What she said.

Well, I am offically very jealous! It looks as if you girls are having all kinds of fun! It's a good thing you guys didn't visit a water park or Kate would have FOR SURE abandoned her teaching position for that of her first dream, a waterslide attendant. Ah, don't we all dream big? And speaking of dreams... Chris Martin, Kate?? Really?? Couldn't someone a little better looking and not quite so Pommie have been your hairdresser? Anyways, I wish I could be there with you ladies. Well, it's off to tend to my little zoo animal...
Love, Laura
