Last night at 8 I made my way to Humboldt Haus where
Internationale Dienstag (international Tuesday) takes place.
Internationale Dienstag is sponsored by INCAS, the same
group to sponsor the international breakfast last Sunday. Every Tuesday some
sort of event takes place with free light snacks and reasonably priced
beverages. Last night was “Pub Quiz”. Visitors split into eight teams of any
size to guess at random bits of trivia. The table I joined ended up with 2
Belgians, 3 Germans, Christine and me. Our American heritage came in handy when
asked to identify a picture of Niagara Falls, Route 66, and the sport
associated with the Stanley Cup. Despite calling the Amazon the longest river
in the world we managed to get 3rd place. At 11 I made it back to my
room and collapsed in a happily exhausted heap.
(For those of you wondering, I used the euro I found to buy
a chocolate croissant at Kaisers. Not the best I’ve ever had, but definitely
the most victorious.)
