What a beautiful view of the city. Can you see it?
We are inside the Reichstag, aka the Parliament building. We froze our butts off waiting in this line. It was the burning of this building (by terrorists) that brought Hitler into power.
This is the Brandenburg Gate, the most visited site in all of Berlin. The Russians, Napolean, Hitler and many more marched through this gate after conquering the city.
The Berlin Dome - the most recognized structure in Berlin. The picture just does not do it justice.
This tv antenna is the second tallest structure in all of Europe. The first is in Moscow. Interesting, huh?
Does this say DECO?
Can anyone name ANY of these fruits?
Look at my little toe. That's from walking around all night in Amsterdam in what I THOUGHT were comfortable shoes.
Our first and best dinner in Berlin
This is the Holocaust Memorial.
Liss, looks like those Birkenstocks aren't as comfy as you thought they would be, huh?
ReplyDeleteThe pictures are just awesome!! And what a history lesson the two of you are getting!
ReplyDeleteouch about your toe! i think one of those fruits is a mango! :) the pictures are amazing, i am so jealous!
ReplyDeleteThe picture of the gate is awesome!!! Doesn't walking around in Europe make you realize how young the US is?
ReplyDeleteMax finally rolled over today!!! Are you guys also checking your email?
Hope your sneakers are comfy and that blister wasn't from those.
Looks like you two are having a great time (aside from the $10 water--did it taste any better?).
Okay, guys, it's Friday afternoon and we haven't heard anything since Tuesday. Hope you can leave an update soon so we know that you are safe.
ReplyDeleteLove you,
