I went to Potsdam's one and only Abenteuer (adventure) Park this weekend with a group from the institute. As you can see in the picture they've put all these little platforms up in these trees, with ropes, and bridges, and nets, and stuff between them. You get attached to a metal cable and do different courses. It was a lot of fun, but really exhausting, and my muscles are pretty sore today. In German they say Muskelkater, literally "muscle hangover".

Afterwards we went to an Italian restaurant for brunch. All you can eat brunch! I tried my first bowl of quark, a yoghurty cheese thing, and yea, it was ok. One of my flatmates moved out today, so we had a BIG dinner last night with stews and cabbage and dumplings. So I'm definitely not starving! I also went into Berlin to meet up with a German and a Kiwi I met at Massey in Auckland who are now working in Northern Germany. Had a really good night, it was good to see a couple of familiar faces.
