here we have the 2011 commencement in the pleasant card playing friendly environment of Kaufbar in Friedrichshain. The beers on the menu were most appealing, which led us onto the rest of the evenings activities and incidents, as some further photos below demonstrate.

Here we have Elsa, Cam, Scott, Sarah and partial Possum as we briefly peruse some street art and continue our meanderings to the pink ice skating ring – Possum with coveted helicopter in hand…
