Yesterday we had our last day in Berlin and we spent it taking city buses around the whole city to be a regular city liver and also visited the outside of the local parliament building called the Reichstag. It was a 1-hour wait outside in a long line in the chilly weather so we decided to keep walking, bussing around the city. We ended our day with a train ride to Potsdam, a city pretty near to Berlin, and had a wonderful walk down the old city streets set up as a market square.
We just arrived here in Düsseldorf after a 4 hour train trip which went 250 km an hour. Fast is not fast until you try to go to the washroom at 250 kms (says Gerhard). We had a short walk to our hotel which is next to the bahnhof (rail stn) and tomorrow we are looking forward to walking the famous 1 mile road here in the old city. Right now we are going for a swim in the spa area of the hotel. We have good German beer for after our swim to eat with our cereal.
More later,
J and G
