Arrival in Berlin!!! Time to start our (Liche and Cindy) little adventure in this famous capital!
What Better Way to start the free walking tour than with a cup of Starbucks in hand?
First stop of the Tour: Brandenburg Gate (main symbol of Berlin)
Another significant symbol: The Holocaust Memorial, one that is dedicated to murdered Jews
Oops, shouldn't have smiled... Sorry, my bad...
Must-have food in Berlin: Bratwurst!!! We took the other alternative - currywurst. Niceee!
The infamous Berlin Wall. Only a part of it was left in the city centre, and wires had to be set up around it as people couldn't resist temptation to take a piece of it home.
Now, I got it right. No smiles.
The bricks are prints of where the Berlin Wall used to stand.
Taking my walk around the spot where the Berlin Wall once stood...
Night view of the Brandenburg Gate was awesome! We luv it deep deep!
Yeah! Finally, after hours and hours of searching for it, we found LIDL!!!
Graffiti and numerous posters on the wall... A very different sight as we take a 2-hour trail out of the city centre...
2 young gals lost on the outskirts of Berlin City...
I know i know, it doesn't look like the stick figure on the wall. Bad imitation... Haha, i tried...
Battle of the Lips!
Notice the momument of 2 figures in a wrestle? Pretty cool!
This church looks rather special. It seemed to have suffered from a fire, but the strange thing is that only the top is burnt. The rest of the church looks fine. Not much information was available around the area about this church. Too bad...
Our Last Stop before flying back to Stockholm: A visit to Victoria, the Goddess of Victory!
2 shag but satisfied gals... YEAH! We finished going around most of Berlin and a little of its outskirts within 2 days! Definitely a victorious trip!
