This morning turned out to be an eventful one. We were heading to Berlin today and our dog sitter had a change of plans and wasn't going to be able to puppy/house-sit after all. So there we were scheduled to catch a train in 4 short hours and we don't have anyone to take care of the girls. Jon was asking some of his classmates while I hopped online to see what I could dig up. The marrieds made it over to our flat all packed up and ready to go. I told them about our little predicament and the boys went into fix-it mode while the girls helped with the puppy arrangements, the kids, and tying up the loose ends around the flat.
Have I mentioned in the last few posts how much I love these people!!!!
If you haven't gotten it, let me tell you again - I LOVE MY FRIENDS!!! They are amazing!
So the boys headed to the train station to take all the bags and to pick up some dog food. They dropped the bags off in lockers so we would have one less thing to think about when we were trying to board the tram - all 5 adults, 4 kids, and 3 strollers worth. After that they headed back to our flat just in time for us to pack everyone up and head back to the train station.
We were all go, go, go, until we got to the train station and found out we couldn't take the train we were planning on - so we grabbed a bite and hopped a squat. Jon was finally able to catch up with us after he got the dogs taken care of with the kennel (they actually came to the flat and picked them up, they didn't speak any English but luckily Jon's German is better than he lets on.)
We caught the train and enjoyed our short ride to Berlin. We managed to get off and out to the taxis with only a little sweat off our brows. Jon, and the Reps were in the first taxi and I was with the Enfumes in the second. Jon's taxi pulled away and that's when our taxi driver told us the babies couldn't go. I guess this afternoon was pretty eventful too.
I quickly called Jon and told him our predicament. He told me to take Jeremy (not Heather because he wanted Jeremy to be there to protect me - isn't he sweet) and catch a tram to the flat we were renting in Berlin.
Okay switch on Amazing Race mode:
First objective - find where we are on the map.
Second objective - find where we want to be on the map.
Third objective - find the trams that run from point A to point B.
Fourth objective - find the place that sells tram tickets.
Fifth objective - figure out what tickets we need to buy.
Sixth objective - catch the tram.
Seventh objective - get a beverage!
Done and Done!!!
Watch out Berlin, here we come!!!
