Berlin - food stop

I'm glad Karen's stomach dragged me off at this point because round the corner from the Internet cafe was a really nice, homely German cafe serving great, greasy winter food. I had a massive plate of stuff including Snitzel (pork steak) along with herby sliced potates fried with bits of bacon, sauerkraut and two fried eggs. That, and a cup of tea, really helped to warm me up :-) Karen had Currywurst which was German sausage in curry sauce with sauerkraut.

More to come. Was uploading a few photos of Berlin so haven't had time to write much today. Photos of our trip can be found here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ianwhitfield/collections/72157603700901549/

Hi John,

Nice to hear from you. It's been a long time. Having a great time here. What can i say.. It's all about the food :-) Had an amazing Russian meal today with Fish soup followed by Pork chops in beer sauce and barbecued potatoes.

Congratulations on your imminent arrival. Mum said the baby is due on Monday. Hope it all goes well and will be asking her for updates.
