But the other day in Berlin, Erin, Barbara and I were walking by a little shop in her neighborhood and she pointed it out. They sell bags. Made in the back of the shop. Maybe that alone isn't so special. But what's so cool is the bags have tops that zip on and off, and when you buy one, you get two tops, and of course can always buy more as the styles they make change. Cleverest of all, the shop is named "Ta(u)sche". My German is terrible, but apparently "Tasche" is bag, and if you put a "u" in, it means "to swap".
We each bought one. We each bought the same one, actually, without meaning to. And for the rest of the day, whenever we thought about them, we smiled.

Clever! The two Erins seem like a well-matched traveling pair in many ways.
