Welp…We made it…

Seems like this photo sums up most of the past 24 hours.

But we did make it to Berlin. Eventually.

Once we found our way out of the airplane circus we took a brief tour of the city.  We drove past the Reichstag, the beautiful government buildings, embassies, parks, old East-West checkpoints, pieces left of the wall…

We stretched our legs a little around the Holocaust Memorial.  This memorial was created with no definite symbolism behind it, which according to our guide, was the artist’s way of forcing the viewer to draw their own conclusions from the rows and columns of cement.  A very fitting and appropriate monument, I think.

From there we went to our hotel for a short break before going to dinner.  If I could have looked at it long enough to take a picture of it, I would post that picture here.  Unfortunately I was starving and decided to just eat the food.  Plenty of food photos to come though!  For now it’s time to rest…finally.
