Woopee !

This morning I had a very strange feeling : I felt time slow. Although I woke up at the same hour and acted the same moves as every morning I felt having more time than ever. I was early for everything and finished tasks way before the same task made yesterday and the day before. It feels strange because suddenly you seem lost in space, something's wrong. So leaving home I took my time and drove the bike slowlier. It is maybe because after weeks of cold, grey and snow it is finally sunny. It's like being out of time or like in those movies when you move the same way at the same speed but the time in slow motion. So it is true today is sunny and warm for the season and at least for the time being. Berlin has this particularity that the weather can change in 10 minutes. It happened many times this week that it was sunny yet suddenly grey and we could see snow storm coming at high speed above us. Easter is gone, Springtime starts, don't forget to change your timer tomorrow night (we lose one hour of sleep), and all is changing suddenly in the city. The light is brighter, the sky is clearer. One thing I can say is I find the air in Berlin quite good. OK, there is a lot of wind but there are no industries nearby and the pollution is not as high as in other cities. It's rare when the traffic is densed as it is in Paris or London. Outside the fact German discovered lately the right to strike we can say the public transport system is good in the city and almost 24/7. So for this week-end people start to talk about (Makin' woopee) going outside having coffee at the terrace or enjoying walks in the park. The sun does a lot on human and to feel its warmth again is good for the mood (and the skin). It means that soon we will start to enjoy sunset again warming our face and sipping wine at the Modersohn Brücke. It's definitely not the best view of the city (you're on top of the railways) but it is absolutly the best one to face the sun in the evening. And you will not feel alone because aficionados like us stay a long time and people passing by can't help but stop. The sun dispeared everyone will go for a grilled sausage and another glass round the corner at what they call a beach bar but is more sand on a plain ground rented for the season. It smells already warm.
