Berlin

- departure: Köln Thursday 23:35
- arrival: Berlin Friday 6:00
(I feel like a master of sleeping positions on the bus now.)
(Also, second one-euro trip worked very well. I just need to remember that megabus saves mony on the heating.)

- raining
- found the U-bahn and bought the tickets like a native Berliner!
- getting a life saving coffee and brushing the teeth in a Berliner cafe (and Tracy Chapman playing in the background)

- raining
- walking around the city for more than 12 hours
- raining
- everything is under construction. they even run out of yellow giraffes so they had to use red ones!

Gedächtniskirche - bombed during the war and left that way

French Dom

German Dom. (I read the story why they look the same but I am not sure how it went anymore.)

THEY ARE BUILDING A F***ING NEW PALACE IN THE MIDDLE OF BERLIN!

AND they have a sample wall.

Alexanderplatz and the famous clock.

My favorite building in Berlin - the Berliner Dom.

Museums. Beautiful museums everywhere.

my favorite building again.

More museums. 

the television tower

neue Synagog

Very interesting museum about the history of Berlin.

THE WALL.

Angela Merkel´s place. Seen from the Bundestag.

Bundestag.

Brandenburger Tor.

Ritter Sport chocolate (museum and shop).

Cycling around the city and drinking beer at the same time on this vehicle. Only in Germany.

My umbrella didn´t survive Berlin weather. (I guess no himym story for me.)

Bundestag with Daniel and Honza. (I totally did not forget to take the pepper spray from my backpack when going through the security control. not. at. all.)

- the sun in Berlin never goes down. and so the people never go to sleep.


(the Egyptians seem to have a elaborated network all around Germany. Or: how we met Amr´s friend in Berlin so that he could give us a bag from Egypt for Amr.)


(oh god this was a hard one, picking up just a few pictures for this post)
