EuroTrip '08 - Berlin, part III, Wednesday dinner

For dinner, we went up high, really high - 230 meters, to a rotating restaurant, perhaps the highest blogger meetup to date?! There I met Cornelius Puschmann, Martin Fenner and his lovely wife, Catriona McCallum, Randolf Nesse, Bjoern Brembs and his girlfriend, and Mark who had to run early to watch, religiously, his team Chelsey in the semi-finals of the British soccer cup. We had beer and good food (some on dangerously looking skewers), quickly forgot about the vertigo, and discussed the future of scientific publishing:

Beautiful views and beautiful food! Looks like it was a wonderful visit. Jealous that you got to meet Martin Fenner. I am going to have to wait till the London meet-up. Hope you can make it as well!

That dinner was a lot of fun - and I haven't been up there for 25 years. I only wished we had more time to talk. Anna, I'm also looking forward to the London Science Blogger meeting.
