It has been an exhausting 2 days! Is anyone else tired? We arrived yesterday morning after only a few hours of sleep on the plane. It was a long day. We explored Alexanderplatz and checked out the Saturn store. Later we looked at pieces of the Berlin Wall that are still standing.
We ended the night at Prater Biergarten where I got to have my first German pretzel (delicious) and a Berliner Weiss, woodruff flavored...not very good.
I fell asleep so quickly last night! This morning we had breakfast in the hotel. Tomatoes, mozzarella, basil, and olive oil. Delicious. Then we met our tour guide at the Fat Tire Bike Tours. It was the best thing we've done so far. We went all around the city, stopping to take pictures and see the sights. We walked along 1.3 km of the Berlin Wall that artists have painted. It was so interesting to see other people's views on what happened in this city.
We stopped for lunch and I had currywurst for the first time. It was good, but I think I prefer bratwurst! Our 4 hour bike tour turned into more like 5 and a half! It was a long and tiring day. The plan is to watch the soccer match today in a pub, so we'll see what happens.
