"Relaxed Rules Day" was a big hit this past Sunday, producing sights, sounds and situations rarely found outside of Mardi Gras. The usual regulations regarding proper dress were suspended, along with those prohibiting unrealistic avatars or futuristic machines and equipment. The usually conscientious Berlin constabulary were not only looking the other way, but were seen actively participating in the frivolity.

A tank battle raged at the Magdelenenkirche early in the day and for a time bombs littered the Schloss Strasse and Alexenderplatz, exploding verbally whenever anyone approached. As might be expected in such times of crisis and chaos, the citizenry sought refuge where there was alcohol, and Der Keller was crowded with what appeared to be an April Halloween costume party.

The revels were not confined to the dance halls however, or even to the living. Apparently bored in his luxury tomb at the Schloss Museum, long dead Egyptian Prince Notuncommon decided to investigate the commotion outside and took a stroll over to the airport to inquire about a Zeppelin tour. Unfortunately the tour operators were unavailable. Any mummy parts found on the streets should be returned to the museum staff.

If anyone expected mature behavior on the part of Berlin's creators, managers and first citizens, they were surely disappointed. After all, Relaxed Rules Day was for everyone, and the photos speak for themselves.
