Diaries of the old world - 2.2

[Adlan Alexandre]

Well,

Continuing on the news.. I rented a car for trip to Berlim. In the rental, a good surprise. The car reserved for me hadn't available. I took a large car with same price the another car. Citroen C4 Picasso. The car is new, only six hundred kilometers run. I remembered many times my car, same smell, when it was new.

Objetive: Bremen for Berlin. Ok, tires on the road, autobahn, free speed..

There, I was free in Europe..Without GPS, I was lost! Sometimes, the best thing to do is yourself lose. After some hours traveling, I stopped in the Mc Donalds. There are a lot here. I know, no is a idea genuine. But until is good to eat something familiar.

Here, the English is very important. The most people speak english, too. I know a few english, at the moment is good, but I need to better.

Autobahn and high speed again...I arrived in Berlim at night, the worst was come in in the city no gps, I went to downtown the city, the pretty city. I stopped in the gas station, I ate something and I saw maps trying find me. I got out, on the streets with works, the car police follows me. I thought: I'm screwed, alone and no know the language.
Suddenly, the car is beside me.
I speak immediately: I'm Brazilian. I want to go Messe Berlim.

- Messe ?? He ask.

Yes, I would want to go Messe...

He signaled me to stop the front. And then, explained to me patiently with a map between English and German. I pretended I understood and I went away.

I found the place was almost midnight. I was tired and went to sleep.

I would like have my CDs, I left everyone in Brazil. I am vacations, change a litle. Without CDs, the German radio, I didn't understand nothing, I found a classical radio, ok? All right...until tomorrow.

After wake up, to eat is hour to go to fair. The traffic jam in Berlim, too. Very transit. Is a problem in big cities of the world.

In the fair, news, technologies and I thinking that the Brazil is late the minimum 30 years about trains. I speak in English enough to remove doubts and to promise futures commercial contacts. And after walking a lot, is hour to back, I had more four hours on the road, all right, to run until the engine maximum and it didn't pass 190 km/h. Is better, ops...

I need to go to left, I am the 190 km/h, pass for me a porche and after an audi and after a motorcycle (Is not cold?). Ok, in next time I want a porsche.
in spite of the speed, the traffic is very educated. Here, the laws are respected. if a car run very close to the front, the driver can lose his wallet of driving and to go prisoner.

In after to cross Germany, have a dinner, drink a beer, sleep, is cold (five degrees)...

Here in Germany, we drink beer every day. Is very good. The beers are tasty. They tell me that it good for heart, digestion, to sleep and more. I asked: And the belly ???
- Ahhh, Nor everything is perfect.

Tomorrow have more!
