Berlin on a Whim

Where do I begin?

Here I am working at a showroom for just shy of 2 weeks....very much the new girl still, and the owners come over to me and ask me if I would like to attend their Christmas party in a surprise location.

The only things that I know are to show up at 7 am and to have my passport and an overnight bag with "going out" clothes!

So.....after thinking, for maybe less than a second, I of course agreed!

We show up at the airport and we still have no idea....

We get to the baggage drop......still no idea.

We get to the security check....no idea.

I get randomly searched and subsequently felt up after going through security....still no ideas.

Pass quite a few of those arrival/departure boards and try to figure out the times.....no ideas.

Sit down at a cafe, 3 bottles of champagne materialize.....no idea.

Then, after the bubbles have been pored, they say it in unison...............IT"S BERLIN!!!!!!!!!!!

In a matter of minutes we were on the plane and off to our holiday party....details of the trip to follow, but all you need to know at this point is that I work for the world's most amazing company and it was an amazing trip!!!!

Stay tuned..... :)
