LAST ENTRY FOR THIS TRIP

I'm happy to say that our last performance was a success in spite of the challenges. It was quite interesting to perform surrounded by hundreds of people who were not part of our audience. How odd it must have seemed to onlookers to see a large group of people with headphones following behind performers wearing neon green safetly belts. The places where we stopped to dance were mostly away from the main music festival stages but there were times when we needed to make last minute adjustments. The last few days before the 15th were very full - birthday celebrations, visits with my son Yusef and Grandson Kian to some of the places that figured in my mothers life: Mon Plaisir, Martinskirche, # 20 Lindenalle. Also time to visit the Jewish Museum in Berlin and in Schwedt. Leaving Germany only two days after the performance was a mistake but after 5 weeks it seemed important to get home too. Lots of paper work to complete and files to transfer at the last minute. But we got it done. Now to begin with the process of editing all the video footage into a film! Stay tuned, hopefully it will be finished by September. Below find a picture of my Aunt Maria's Stolperstein, Mon Plasir where my mother and her father liked to stroll on a Sunday afternoon, Martinskirche in Angermunde where the family attended once a month, and a picture of Yusef and Thomas downloading data at the back of the van while we waited for the train back to Berlin. This will be the last entry for this journey.
