Ich bin ein Berliner (and VIP)

BERLIN!!! This city rocks! Amazingly beautiful and historic by day (but I don't know what they showed on tours before reunification because seriously most of the cool buildings are in the east -could be because the Russians carpet bombed the bit that had been promised to the Allies...) and by night, well I never thought I'd say this but the clubbing is amazing.

Well particulary amazing when your host has all the right connections and gets you into one of the most exclusive clubs for free because his friend -a top DJ- is playing and then you get taken to the VIP room where there is free vodka and redbull and a guy whose sole job is to get you anything you want and the cool people you're hanging out with apparently were all major German actors and producers and the like. Massive night. We got home at like 5am and the club was still getting started.

Then last night we were at a party for the closing of some 5-star hotel. Another VIP event. Red carpet, paparrazi (who photographed us, then asked who we were and seemed a little disappointed -better lie next time), and apparently heaps of celebrities. It didn't really go off, but it was still cool to be there.

Oh and we're loading upon cheap kebabs (€1) -East Berlin represent!
