Germany Part III (Berlin)

After all the fun in Altenburg, we spent one night in Berlin before heading back to Glasgow.

Christian's lovely friend Anne took us out for "Berlin's best ice cream" and a drink. She is another of his friends met in Stockholm. We sat at a table together at the wedding... Stockholm was our name on the seating chart.

Here's Christian and Anne. He had a coffee thing and she had three delicious flavours that I sadly can't remember the names of.

I had a hazelnut cone, and I'd definitely say it was one of the best ever.

We went through this awesome park with gigantic benches, a bus made out of mosiac tiles, grassy mounds, and cars made of turf.

This was definitely an artistic and youthful neighbourhood. Really felt in our element.

Anne's original plan was to take us to this Bath ship which is a barge converted into a big swimming pool. There was a big line, a fee to get in, and we didn't have our suits so we opted out.

Instead we had a beer and dipped our feet in the river. The DJ at this place was very good.

This guy was showing off for all the hipster ladies on the dock I think.

Then we headed back to the station to get our stuff and train away to our hotel room near the airport.

Christian grabbed some curry-wurst before we left. This shot showed up on the viewfinder when a security guard made us turn on the camera at the airport. Apparently he should have had this curry-sausage stuff at another spot. Oh well, next time.
