I wish now I had taken a picture of that plane!\u00a0 This picture is looking the other direction from all of the activity at the expo.<\/p>\n
[today’s run: rest day]<\/p>\n
Yesterday afternoon we took in the matinee screening of the new Tom Hanks movie, Bridge of Spies.<\/p>\n
It was good, as you would expect a Tom Hanks movie to be.\u00a0 There was some suspense and quite a bit of humor in a lawyerly, downplayed way.<\/p>\n
Hanks plays James Donovan, a New York lawyer who is called on to represent a man accused of spying in the US for the Soviet Union.\u00a0 He does that.\u00a0 And then he is called on to go to Berlin and negotiate a trade of this spy for Francis Gary Powers.<\/p>\n
We got a kick out of the Berlin parts, nudging each other and saying, “we were there”, “I remember that”.\u00a0 They have a couple of scenes at the Tempelhof airport<\/a> (now closed) and they show an old DC-4\u00a0 (or similar) airplane in the movie when Donavan arrives in Berlin.\u00a0 I’m sure it was the same plane we saw when we were at that airport a month ago; that’s where they had the Berlin Marathon “expo” (where you pick up your race packet and can shop for running gear).<\/p>\n I wish now I had taken a picture of that plane!\u00a0 This picture is looking the other direction from all of the activity at the expo.<\/p>\n
