Denied entry to the U S Embasy in Berlin, Germany
Posted: Sat Aug 27, 2016 8:54 pm
So I was in Berlin, Germany last week. I was near the Brandenburg Gate and the U S Embassy.
I was missing home, so I decided to do a Jason Borne and get my passport out and visit U S Soil for a second. There was also some cool art on the first floor I could see from the outside that looked interesting as well.
My Jason Borne went like this:
A non Marine Guard at the entrance to the Embassy saw me and my passport and said, "Do you have an appointment", I said "No", he said "then you can not enter".
I left without my brief taste of U S Sanctuary.
Other things of interest from my trip to the Baltic Nations:
A waitress in Tallinn, Estonia, preferred to not have a tip, than to have one in U S dollars. (how things have changed)
I saw no wild throngs of Muslim men attacking blonde women in Sweden. (but I did not visit any train stations) I did see a few hijabs in Sweden and Germany, but not many, certainly less than I would see in Houston.
The Russian guide in St. Petersburg gave the view that communism was just one chapter in a very big history of Russia. St. Petersburg is very interesting and worth the trip, if you can get there. I didn't know that Lenin sold many of the Czar's treasures on the cheap to capitalists to finance the civil war that he eventually won.
Copenhagen like Amsterdam has lots of fit pretty women riding bicycles.
I would like to visit Amsterdam again.
