Keeping the long story short, I booked a flight from TXL to OCA via JFK. For those of you who never been to the US, OCA stands for Chicago O'Hare airport. And yes, my journey to the North turned out to become more mindblowing than I ever thought and influences my life more than everything else. Before I leave one half of my heart with my greatest love and take her half with me, we decided that I am going to visit her in her home country during the summer.
The flight took about 9 hours from Berlin to NY and it was quite good. Despite that I sat next to a simple minded girl from Baltimore, the showed movies were crap and that I lost my feeling for time and space, the jetlag have hit me only the next day. On my way to Chicago I met a few very interesting people: the vice president of the Berlin historical association, who was a pilot on one of the Rosinenbomber back in the time of the Berlin blockade visiting relatives im the Strats, an US-army officer on vacation with his Polish! wife and his deaf daughter, a prosecutor from Miami visiting his girlfriend in NY and finally the curator of the Chicago Bonzai collection in the botanical garden. I had some really interesting conversations with them and bottom line everybody said that it will work out with my Hannah. As far as I can tell they were right...
Since this blog entry is now rather long already and I don't want to bother you with endless posts, I have decided to split it - right here...
