As I start Week 4 here, I woke up and immediately updated my
blog and posted all the pictures that I took yesterday. It was a lazy first
half of the day, as I lazed around in my pajamas, chatted with my sis and Aunty
Lita and did laundry.
I met up with Clod at 3pm and then we headed to the Isle of
Museums once again. Today’s target was the Pergamon Museum Neues Museum Rome and Babylonia . The
spectacular architecture was just amazing. I find it sooooo hard to believe
that these were REAL structures; so majestic and grand! We took our time
scouring the museum and yet when we came out, we found that we still had time
to visit another museum!!
So we went to the Altes
Museum (Old
Museum ) where statues from Ancient
Greece and Rome
were on display. Another fantastic place! J We also tried to go to the Berliner Dom but our
3-day pass did not cover that place so we just took pictures from the outside.
So if I was transported back to Egypt
yesterday, today I went back to Greece ,
Rome and Babylonia !
Wow! It’s no wonder that Clod has been to the Pergamon Museum 5 times before
this and still yearns to go back!!
I also called dad, as with the time difference, he would be
ushering in his birthday at 5pm my time. He was surprised to receive a call
from me that he actually asked who was on the line. Lol!
After the two museums, Clod and I headed back home to rest.
We met up for dinner and then decided that we would make plans tomorrow; either
go to the Jewish Museum or the Berlin
Memorial Museum
And so another week has passed. As I begin to settle and
feel comfortable with my situation here, I find that time is now against me.
Ironic isn’t it, when 3 weeks ago I was thinking of going home…

It's the usual experience of everyone leaving their comfort zone for some place new.
You're just the average girl. Isn't it nice to know that?
