Two DUers are going to BERLIN to see Obama!!

[Eurobabe]

Don't hate us. We promise to take nice pictures and share our experience of how he is received in Germany. :hi: :patriot:

Signed, 48percenter and MissHoneychurch.

[Heidi]

1. Kick!

:kick:

[MissHoneychurch]

2. One American and one German

we both will listen to it differently.

I can't wait to hear him speak. And when he is president I can tell my grandchildren later I saw and heard him speak :D

[liberalla]

3. No hate, but a bit of envy... Safe travels to you both!

I look forward to the photos and your reports!

[Eurobabe]

4. thanks, I wonder how he will be received

after 8 years of the war-mongering, stupid monkey that squats in the White House.

:bounce:

[ForeignSpectator]

5. Do you have any information about when he is gonna speak etc?

PS : The DUAddBot is giving me an add about hotels in Berlin here... how does THAT work??

[Eurobabe]

6. Latest info from Der Spiegel

is possibly Templehof (old airport?) or Gendarmenmarkt?

[ForeignSpectator]

7. Obama's people are in Berlin today to settle the details...

from the article. Also, Merkel is not too excited ( lol, of course, nothing else expected ) and *Co was successful in preventing the Brandenburg Gate. Sigh.

[H2O Man]

8. Have a great time!

I look forward to hearing about your experience, and seeing some photos!

[MissHoneychurch]

9. Hey, I'm going to hear Obama speak

in the company of 48Percenter .... OF COURSE I will have a great time :D

Also, I will see my brother who lives in Berlin. Will be only the second time this year.

[southern_belle]

[MissHoneychurch]

11. Come on over to Germany

and we will take you with us :D


:hi:

[zbdent]

12. could you send pics of the lovely ladies on the beaches?

:D :spank:

[MissHoneychurch]

13. Could you please consult a map

and look where Berlin is? :rofl:

[uponit7771]

15. German autobahn will get you to beach and back quickly :-)

[zbdent]

16. Okay, how about the parks ...

I suspected that you weren't just going to Berlin as the only stop ... I would expect that, if you had much more time (or if you were there on a semi-to-permanent basis, you might be hitting the beaches in Germany)

[MissHoneychurch]

19. Actually, it is our only stop

I have to be back to work on Friday. Otherwise it would have been a long weekend in Berlin.

[zbdent]

30. okay, I'll be nice.

[flygal]

37. Actually - outside of Potsdam has a nude beach on a lake

it was where the former boarder was and the E. Germans were all into FKK.

[QueenOfCalifornia]

35. Ahhhhh, Yes...

The famous beaches of Berlin. The North Sea and the Baltic Sea which lies on the northern side of Germany are a real treat for freezing to death....
:rofl:

[NattPang]

14. So where is he speaking?

[MissHoneychurch]

26. Still haven't heard

I wanna know too.

[AtomicKitten]
