The guy with the glass of beer in front of him, is my brother Bodo who died recently.
When you go to the original post you can see Bodo with Aki and Bernd (nicknamed Stummel), me (his sister Uta) and Ina, the wife of Aki. Peter took the pictures. It was Bodos birthday, the 9th of June 2010 (ten years ago!) Peter and I were on a visit to Berlin at the time. 2016 we were on another visit to Berlin. This is when I saw Bodo again on his birthday!
Uta and Peter in Berlin June 2016
We are about to have breakfast at the Wolke on our first day in Berlin.
We left home on the 2nd of June and arrived in Berlin on the 4th of June. We are going to depart again in a little over two weeks. Time goes quickly – I took already some 300 pictures!
So far we’ve been out and about every day. Today I chose to stay in our apartment on my own while the others went to Neukoeln. For tonight we have tickets for the Komische Oper. They show The Magic Flute in a modern version.

I’m so sorry to hear about your brother Bodo dying. 😦
I’m glad you got to spend time with him in Berlin.
(((HUGS)))
Thanks, Carolyn. I was told the guys in the 2010 birthday picture are all going to Bodo’s funeral on the 2nd of June as well as my brother Peter-Uwe and his family are going to be there too. (Bodo died already on the 24th of April!) I think they have a funeral only after cremation.
HUGS, Uta
