Flea Market at Mauer Park - May 26, 2013

This morning a few of us headed off to the giant Sunday flea market near Mauer Park. It was raining but stopped once we got there, but there was mud everywhere. This didn't take away from the uniqueness of the flea market though. It was absolutely massive. We spent hours there and I still don't think we saw all of it. There is a part of the wall still at the park and we went up and took pictures near that as well, and I sat on one of the swings there that overlooks a field and the entire flea market.

Megan and I got bratwurst for lunch and I managed to get ketchup all over myself. I also searched fervently for a souvenir for my friend Courtney and finally found one. I won't say what it is, in case she is reading this, but I bought it from a British guy. That will make more sense once she sees what it is.

I spent about an hour or two in the afternoon perfecting my project and waiting for Professor Freeman to return so that I could show him. The hardest part of the project was definitely taking the photos, I found editing the audio and putting the soundslides presentation together really simple. I'm so relieved to be done with that.

I decided to celebrate finishing my project by going to dinner at Asian Tiger with Megan, but we were a bit disappointed and have come to the conclusion that the Vietnamese place that we keep going to is better.

A few of us ended the night by hanging out in our room as usual, and that led to some pretty hilarious conversations. I'm excited to go home in a few days and see my friends and family again, but nights like these make me realize I'm going to miss Berlin and the new friends I've made here on this trip.
