Tempelhof.

The part of Berlin where I live is called Tempelhof, where there is an old airport where people know go rollerskating, kite-flying, running and hanging out in. It isn't a part of Berlin I would have chosen myself, but now that I live here I really like it. It's close to a lot of parks (one that has deer!) the airport area is great. I can take Oskar to several playgrounds around here. It's close to everything with the u-bahn or the s-bahn.

I have lived here three weeks now. All good (in the hood) and I'm still exploring the area. Exploring stories follows.

Jake, a friend, also lives here and we had a nice walk around our part of town some weeks ago. We went to feed the deer, walk though the allotment gardens, looked at kites flying and talking on the start tracks in the airport area singing songs from Mary Poppins. Jake taught me a couple songs and I taught him a Swedish song. It was a nice walk.

Oskar then took me to another park after kindergarten one day. I asked him if he wanted to go to the playground, now that it is begin to be spring in this city, and he said yes and started to walk to the playground he wanted to go to, somewhere I hadn't been before. He, with his 2,5 years, knows this part of town so much better then I do so letting him lead the way is a good choose.

Be looked the ducks in the pond. We talked about spring. He found the playground and we played for a while. He laughed at me when I got on a swing that is made for children because I looked so over-sized to it, but I still did swing. Then the wind started blow cold and we walked home.

Robyn (the bobyn) was staying a night at my place and we went to take a beer in the near by area to check out was is here. We ended up at a bar called L.A, yes Los Angeles. A bar that had paintings of celebrity on the walls, cheep cocktails and played a lot of 90's music. I missed LA for a second there, but of course it was nothing like the real deal. It was fun though that we found it. It's not awesome though.

I'm heading out now. Might try to get some falafel by the u-bahn and then head to the movies.

I have a besti movie date with Mark. It's Friday, Friday, Friday...
