Look out, Kasey Kahne!

On Friday evening the Berlin Tax partners invited our GP class to go Karting, which is their favorite hobby. It's essentially the same as what we call Go Karting. With the prior class, they split into two teams, GP and Tax, and thoroughly whooped the GP class. This time, whether from a belated sense of fairness or because we're 3x the size of the prior class, they split the teams based on individual racing times. We each had 10 minutes to get the feel for the track and then we were split into 10 teams of 3 people and raced for the next hour, swapping out drivers every 10 to 15 minutes. While my team didn't exactly win (though we did beat out 3 other teams), we had Kirsten's husband, Sascha, as our pit crew. The Tax partners were really friendly and fun to hang out with and it was great to connect with some of the people from the Berlin office. After the race, they then took us out to a traditional German dinner at a restaurant in one of the really pretty, historic parts of Berlin (Gendarmenmarkt). I've posted a few other pictures from the evening. It was a great outing and I'm ready to go again!
