In Berlin

I arrived! So far I've found the apartment -- it's really nice, actually! The building is really old, and I have no idea what it used to be, but I'm guessing something fancy. There are a lot of creaky stairs to get up here. And I met both cats. Ginger is sweet, and Atilla is HUGE. He sniffed all my stuff and loafed up on the bed. I had a very nice shower.

The cats have an enclosed balcony to sit on, and it's just off my room.The door stays open during the day so they can go in and out.

There's an international supermarket just at the corner, and a Middle Eastern deli between here and the U-bahn station (a falafel wrap for 2,50!) I haven't gone grocery shopping yet, because I don't know where to put my stuff, because my flatmate hasn't come back yet. She won't be here till 6 or 7.

I did manage to sleep on the plane, with the assistance of benadryl. I slept about 3 or 4 hours, I think. I hope I can stay awake until my flatmate gets back! I don't want to nap, because that'll only make my jet lag worse.

The weather keeps changing its mind between sunny and cloudy. At least it's fairly pleasant.
