Walk or Jog

One of the things Heinrich noticed was that the street signs that show when to “Walk” and “Don't Walk” looked different in Berlin. The person for “Don't Walk” is a red guy with his hands sticking out on both sides. He is wearing a funny little hat.

 
After Heinrich took a picture of the red guy he tried to get a picture of the green guy. But it seemed like every tine he snapped the picture of a green guy the light would change and Heinrich would get another picture of …. The Red Guy.


Eventually he got better at timing his picture and finally he got a picture of the Green “Go” Guy. This guy is wearing the same funny hat and he looks like he knows exactly where he's going when he strides across the street.


It wasn't too long before Heinrich got a little tired of walking and decided to ride the city bus. Most of the time the bus was faster than walking. But on the most famous street Unter der Lindens the traffic was pretty slow. Heinrich noticed a lady jogging on the pavement. Every time the bus would stop this lady would run past. Eventually she got so far ahead of the bus that Heinrich couldn't see her any more.
