Happy Valentine's Day!

Watched Bridge of Spies with Scott-n-Julie last night. With Tom Hanks and Spielberg you can't go wrong, of course. The Coen brothers wrote the screenplay. It's pretty good and a great deal of it is historically accurate.

It brought me back to my Berlin trip. I hope I can return someday. It's a place with such significant changes in a very short time, provoking deep discussion and reflection and a feeling of having one foot in the past and one in the present.

Just don't walk in the bike lane on the sidewalks! :)
