K-Pop is Taking Over
An annoying bunch of Korean teenaged boys sat behind me on the short flight from Paris to Berlin. They giggled and laughed and fondled their mobiles. I couldn't wait to get off the plane. I was the first one down the stairs and as I jumped on the waiting bus I watched them board. They were so prettified, with their blond streaked hair and tight jeans. When I bounded off the bus into the terminal there was a crowd of teenaged Asian girls waiting. The bulbs started to flash. I then realized I'd been traveling with a famous Korean boy band,
B2ST.
The taxi ride to the hotel was a quick ten minutes. I'm staying just south of the Tiergarten, the giant park with the iconic statue. I will get some photos of that tomorrow. I dropped my bags and asked myself "what would Dodo do?" I turned right around and went searching for dinner outside in the freezing cold. I paused in the lobby to soak it in. The hotel is one of those artsy boutique ones. Aren't they all these days?
I found a place called Cafe Einstein about a half mile away. I had a nice dinner and a large beer and cursed myself for not bringing gloves as I walked around taking photos.
