Berlin to Hamburg
Dude, why didn’t anyone tell me about currywurst? Its like the best hotdog meal ever.
Only have a minute here…in Hamburg now. In Berlin highlight would have been the trip out to Beelitz Heilstätten, the partially abandoned former miltary hospital some 60km outside the city. I had the good fortune to meet some very hospitable Berliners ahead of time who took me out there. Would have been difficult without them. They had just finished filming a Tom Cruse movie and one of the buildings (to the the dismay of photographers in search of decay) had been painted and cleaned and all these props to look like a Nazi hospital. The guy watching the building let us in and was pretty proud to have been Cruse’s bodyguard. The other buildings were nice and decrepit however. What an amazing place. I’lll have pictures up in a few weeks, lets just say it was basically an urban exploration utopia.
Minutes are up…bye
Viva hospitable Berliners and UrbanEx! Anti-viva Cruise, overrated egomanical midgets, and members of inferior cults!
German street food is ausgezeichnet – and quality street food makes any city better
Looking forward to the hospital pix, I looked at some existing ones on flickr today, it looks like a nice creepy place.
there’s something refreshing about the fact that you misspelled Cruise.
hope you’re having a good time!
