So. Today was the day selected weeks ago for a trip to Potsdam. The forecast for the day, when I got up this morning, was 11C (ca 50F) and rainy. When I got back, they'd changed the forecast: 8C (45F) and rainy.
So I have a few pictures of Potsdam and Sans Souci, but not many because a) it was windy, b) it was rainy, and c) it was too fucking cold to take my hands out of my pockets. I bought a leporello (those booklets of mini postcards) of the castle, and a couple postcards, which have better pictures than I could have gotten today. Also, for 4,50, I picked up a map of Prussian Berlin, which has a guide to the buildings in the city that stem from Prussian times. Much smaller and more easily packed than the book I saw at Dussmann.
The hems of my jeans are soaked, and I can't really take them off, because my other pants I brought are rather thin, and it's forty three fucking degrees outside, and maybe 60 inside. Germans don't believe in heating.
I need to work on some homework, and Ben wanted to chat some tonight I think. And tonight is the DFB championship game between Bayern Munich and Werder Bremen, which starts at 8 pm I believe. I'd be interested in seeing it, and there's a sports bar up the street (though it's a smoking bar, ugh), but I'm not going back out there unless I have to. Which I don't.
The weather is currently forecast to improve by the end of this coming week. I hope it doesn't change in the meantime.
