BERLIN GERMANY

So we were so excited to be going to Berlin. Everyone had told us that Berlin is so awesome.  We caught a night train from Krakow Poland to Praha in the Czech Republic so that we could arrive at 7.30am and jump on a train bound for Berlin at 8.30am so we would arrive in Berlin at around 2. The night train was uncomfortable and insanely loud. So there was not much sleep to be had there. Once we boarded the next train in Praha I relised that our eurorail pass was not valid in Czech.. I know I know its probably something that we should have looked at BEFORE arriving there and randomly jumping on a train, but alas, we did not! So when the ticket guy comes around to check our tickets he says "No... not valid.... buy new ticket...25 euro each". We had 20 between us! Eeeeep! So Louise promptly works her magic and starts crying and we get the ticket for the 20 euros! YAY!
Upon arrival to Berlin we were thinking that it was off to a good start! The directions to the hostel were fantastic, and we did not get lost once! Bonus! Alas the luck turned sour quickly. We were ther for a grand total of about 40mins when both of our phones were stolen from our dorm room! Great!
So we had planned to go out and see the city, instead we had to rush around trying to cancel phone plans. FUN TIMES!
The next day was spent finding the police station and making a report so we could claim our phones on travel insurance. The arvo was more enjoyable... we walked along the Berlin wall where artists have painted murals all along it. It was a long walk but it was nice to see, but god it was freezing!
Day three was a much better day. We walked through the park and saw all the touristy attactions. We also went for a tour of a really awesome palace and if I was better with names I would remember what it was called. But it was very cool. It was my favourite style....Baroque!!!
Leaving tomorrow at some stage heading to Cologne. Should be good!
