The rude awakening of class SUCKED on Monday morning but I got my lazy behind out of bed anyway and started of the morning right with some tasty pastries and Balzac coffee with the rents! While I sat in class and pretended to care Mom and Dad went to Gendmenmarkt, Hitler's Bunker, The Site of the Third Reich Chancellery, and the Reichstag. I met up with them after class and we walked through the Teirgarten to the Siegessaeule where we climbed to the top. And please don't be mistaken: we does not include mom who stayed down on solid ground in her ski coat looking like a bag lady...typical.
Anyway, Daddy and I hiked to the top to get a wonderful panoramic view of the city. We headed back down, hailed a cab and went and had the best meal EVER in the Opernpalais! Afterward we went and saw the Neue Wache, Berliner Dom, and Alexanderplatz before heading back to Kotti for a trip to the grocery store (we were out of toilet paper) and then back to teh apartment.
Daddy and I braved the weather once more and headed over to the East Side Gallery which is largest remaining chunk of the wall. After it fell in 89 they brought a bunch of artist in to paint murals in the East side of it which would have been strictly forbidden by the Soviets. Not only was the wall awesome but it was a wonderful time to hang out just me and daddy which I always love doing! I hope you enjoy the pictures!
And then to bed...early as usual!
