Berlin is Fun
I've been lucky to be able to visit Berlin again this vacation. I've been blessed with an entire 2 days of vacation time that I am allowed to choose myself this year. I've originally chosen Monday and Tuesday, Oct. 29th and 30th so that Stephanie and I could use the time to go to Poland and finalize our European wedding plans. Unfortunately, a good friend ours needed to go to the hospital in Poland, so we'll have to postpone our little visit down there. Nevertheless, we were able to spend quite a bit of time around Berlin.
The Metro system in Berlin is a bit different from the rest of the world. They have U-Bahn ( underground mass transit ) and S-Bahn ( street-level mass transit ). Of course, there are problems with this because the S-Bahn sometimes travels underground, and the U-Bahn sometimes travels above-ground. After careful research into this matter, I have concluded that the only real difference between the two is that the U-Bahn has TV, and the S-Bahn doesn't. Long live the U-Bahn.

And you should have seen the guy's face when Trevor announced the results of his research on the S-Bahn. I've never seen a German trying so hard to pretend like he doesn't understand English...
