So, I had this lovely long post written out, but the ugly internet cut me off and my whole post failed to autosave which was a total bummer coz I totally forgot what I was writing, and I can’t repost it.
Anyway, update.
Visited: Berlin! Düsseldorf! Köln! Trier!
Next stop: Heidelberg (on an ICE! so exciting) PS. Sorry I wanna take an ICE, not leaving Deutschland until I manage to take one)Future stops: Strasbourg (Frankreich), Freiburg, Konstanz
Weather has been really wonderful, until today. Today is gray, wet and dreary. It hit really fast and bad. Yesterday it was still completely blue and clear skis. Made for wonderful pictures. Anyway, today, train-ing to Heidelberg, hopefully will meet some SG people there. And yah fun fun. I can’t wait to take the ICE. Short updates on things I have done.
Visited the Reichstag, German History Museum (note: if you are going there, it takes an entire day, no joke.) Saw the Brandenburg gate, the real one for once. And Zoo Berlin! Saw Knut and the rest of his Polar bear family. And a lot of other cool stuff too.Düsseldorf was quite pretty, saw some of the biggest shopping streets there are. Ate my long awaited Ramen. And it was pretty authentic too. And stocked up on some nice stuff like Japanese curry, nori sheets, inari etc.
Amazing Asian food grocery stores there.Köln cathedral was quite amazing, german cathedrals are sort of different from the rest due to the fact that they have been damaged by the war and stuff. And visited the oh so good chocolate museum there. And walked around a lot. Bought a dirndl at C&A, amazing buy of 29 euroes for a 3 set piece. Was amazed by it. Trier was a really small city, but add good weather together with roman ruins, makes for a perfect day out. =)
So thats a really short cut post of what I have done so far. Till next time! Ciao Ciao.
