So it was, and so it is, our last couple of days in Berlin, Germany. It was quite the time, very different cultures where you could bring alcohol on public transportation but I was pushed out of a souvenir shop for having an ice cream cone. One where seeing a drunken person, or a helpless beggar in broad daylight is the norm, but the prospect of someone having a firearm in their house is completely preposterous. It comes down to the culture, which is probably the hardest thing to adjust to, that and the sun setting at 10PM and rising at 4AM, you may not think it's a huge problem, but it just craps on any sleep schedule you thought you had, especially with the jet lag.
I can see and hear the tears already, however I am very excited to be back in the states, first thing I'm going to do is nap wrapped in an American Flag with my AR-15 in one hand and a copy of the Declaration of Independence in the other, for real though, gonna sleep a lot and maybe take a nice slow ride through the country side because city life makes you miss the small things like that. All the quaint things about Arkansas are completely lost upon the Germans, and possibly the cool things about the city might be lost on us for all I know. I did enjoy our time though, food was great, the sights were beautiful, and the food was great.
I don't know if I'll ever return, I anticipate I will but you never know.
See ya Deutschland.
