Berlin marathon today and it meant I had to walk an hour to meet friends for brunch. The trams were stopped. A taxi driver laughed and said, “No way” when I asked him to take me where I was going. It was a pleasure in the gorgeous fall weather. A Canadian man placed 6th, that’s cool, right? (Our headmaster and my friend Lois from Sweden ran today as well.)

“Half an hour later, three Egyptians, a Bosnian teenager, and a Moldovan rang his bell. Tölke, whose German-Jewish mother lost her entire family in the Holocaust, handed out shower kits stocked with Aveda products and Italian cologne (“I’m not one of these hippies in Jesus sandals—my guests sleep on Armani/Casa sheets”), and served lentil soup. “They were completely frozen,” he said of the five men. “They had been on the road for months. This was the first time they sat down in a German kitchen, and had someone listen to them talk about what they had been through. That makes a difference.”
This short piece provides a little insight into the refugee situation in Berlin--it also gives insight into modern German culture and empathic civility.

“Equal parts Paris is Burning and A Midsummer Night’s Dream”
Pretty accurate picture of hip Berlin, lots of shots from around our neighborhood. Check it out.

Driving up Warschauer Straße September 4th, evening. We rented a truck to pick up a cabinet that a friend had given us. Driving through Berlin is fun, except when it's busy. Like this bit yesterday.

Ai Weiwei, Chinese dissident artist and activist, had a show last year here. But it was just a couple weeks ago that he moved to the small neighbourhood where we used to live. He’ll be speaking at the Literature Festival and taking up a residency at Berlin’s UDK art school .
Though his wife and son have lived in Berlin for a while and he has a studio in Prenzlauer Berg, the Chinese government only just returned his passport after arresting him four years ago.

Boatwatching with buddies on the Spree. Gorgeous weather, hot, and a grand and sprawling riverside bohemian bar-cum-playground with a DJ, dance floor, and fire pit. What could be better when it's 32 degrees and you're sweating anyway?

Haruki Murakami running.
In What I Talk About When I Talk About Running, he says:
“Sometimes I run fast when I feel like it, but if I increase the pace I shorten the amount of time I run, the point being to let the exhilaration I feel at the end of each run carry over to the next day. This is the same tack I find necessary when writing a novel. I stop every day right at the point where I feel I can write no more. Do that, and the next day’s work goes surprisingly smoothly. I think Ernest Hemingway did something like that. To keep on going, you have to keep up the rhythm. This is the important thing for long-term projects. Once you set the pace, the rest will follow.”
