My day in Berlin :) Today we woke up super early and caught a train from Shoneyfield (American way of spelling the name of our German airport lol) to the haupbahnhoff (central station) in Berlin. We had our route planned out and upon arriving we took off in the direction of the Berlin Wall. First on the agenda was the Reichstag (German Parliament). We were excited to go up in the dome to see the city but for some reason it was closed. From there we went to the Brandenburg Gate, the Berlin Wall, Checkpoint Charlie, Holocaust memorial, Topography of Terror Museum. We made sure to pick up some doner kebabs (lamb meat sandwiches) that were awesome. To drink I had a orange coke which was also really tasty! Unfortunately it rained on us ALL day in Berlin but we still had a great time. Technically we "backpacked" through Europe (or a small part anyway) because we had to wear our backpacks around town all day :) Needless to say, we were cold, wet, and our feet and backs hurt and we were pretty ready to get on the train to Hamburg that evening.
