Relaxing Into Discomfort (c)2015 Joan M. Newcomb

I'm in Germany, and it's been one roller coaster ride since we got here.  There
were 32mph winds when we landed (which should have been a clue for the rest
of the trip).

We came from Madrid, where it was nearly 80 degrees, and in Germany it was
in the 30s.  We've been rained on, lightening'd over and pelted with hail
pellets.  Our artist's apartment in Madrid was warm and inviting.  Our
flat in Kreuzberg is a flophouse for grunge-rebels.
