99 (well, not quite) Red Balloons Over Berlin

I absolutely love this kind of thing.
Below you will see a video which is to me truly magical. The editing is great, and the music is nice, but I would probably like to have more of what they were feeling and what was happening.



This second video is what they went through to get the camera back.

Very interesting. My partner, Bing came in and is currently driving herself insane trying to figure out what the title of the music in the first video is ("I know it is a requiem of some sort...")

Do you know?

And, hey, thank you for stopping by my blog. Nice to meet you and what interesting stories you must have to tell about being a Berliner now.
Ever miss the colonies?

Hey Maria, thanks for dropping by. I really enjoy your blog and have been lurking for about a month now.

You're right, the music is Mozart's Requiem... we are in the land of Mozart... well, just a few degrees up.

As for the interesting stories about being a Berliner, I just think that Berlin itself is fascinating and I really love it! Miss the colonies, of course I do, but it is mainly the loved ones I left behind... oh, and of course Taco Bell in the middle of the night. "You never know what you've got 'till it's gone".
