Berlin

by SandiMandi - last update: Mar 25, 2008

Berlin is an incredible city, not so beautiful, but it has that charm that made me fall in love with it. I first visited Berlin in August 2005 and after spending 3 days there, I knew I had to come back! I enjoyed the atmosphere and the touch of history that you can feel everywhere.
The TV-tower is a good landmark in Berlin as you can see it from almost anywhere you are. On my second trip in March 2007 we went up to the tower and although I don't like high places I'm glad I made it to the top, the view was amazing!
River Spree runs through the city and there are lots of small ships offering sight-seeing tours. We went on one, and it was a nice experience although a bit of a tourist trap, as they usually are... But we saw this nice "beach bar" while on board, so it was a good thing that we took the boat trip. As soon as we got off the ship we headed for the bar, had a few Coronas and enjoyed the sun!
