it's been a while since we returned from our small tour, which included 8 concerts in berlin and 1 in prague. overall, the trip was amazing and the tour was successful thanks to schwebi, rhyner, thilo and all the other friends we made in berlin.We are planning on returning in november, and we are keeping our fingers crossed that it all works out.
some highlights included a 7 hour bicycle tour our american friend jeff took us on, during which we saw the royal hunting grounds, loads of monuments, and most of central berlin. we took another afternoon and visited the pergamon museum. the food was amazing. we steered clear of fast food places and opted more towards hole in the wall type joints....of which there are many. we also took lots of pictures of us posing in front of various old buildings.
the city is full of art, history, youth, great food, music, and the people are just as friendly as texans. we had such a great time, and we can't wait to go back!
