I'm kind of beyond trying to put an entire city--so rich in history, culture, AWESOMENESS--into words, so I'm going to keep doing these in mostly pictures. That cool witchu? Also, I've got to save some stories to actually tell you guys face to face. Also also, I'm lazy. And busy. And this is way late.
Yeah, there was a ski slope IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CITY.
The park.
Funny story about this one. For history nerds. Ask me about it sometime.
The Reichstag. Also featured is the crazy weather.
Probably my favorite building in Europe. SO COOL at night. Also, check the Soviet television pole on the right.
My amazing, trusty travel mates! We were tired here. But cheery.
Go to the East Side Gallery. Just go. Artists covered a mile-long piece of the Berlin wall. It's beautiful and moving.
And I'm the kid that had to take a picture with Einstein because she went to Einstein High. I never doubt that I'm SO AMERICAN.
Oh, here's the hundreds of Germans gathering on a Sunday to watch random people karaoke. It's true. The Germans do love the '80s.
That's your little taste of Berlin. Old and new, historical and graffitied, sad but celebratory.
