Prague to Berlin

Berlin. Rich history from WW2 and Hitler's 3rd Reich. Severely bombed/flattened WW2. Home of the east west divide by the now fallen Berlin wall. Capital of Germany. Check point Charlie. Uses the big bear as it's mascot. The place where Mercedes taxis are as common as Holdens and Fords in Australia. Museum central especially if it's war related. Home of the Holocaust Memorial. Pergamum altar resides here in the Pergamon museum. And without  doubt nightlife central; nightclubs (ie strippers), discos (ie place to dance, what we would consider a nightclub), gay bars, live musicians (we had Cat Stevens play down the road from the hostel), and good food (crispy crackling pork knuckle at 1kg plus - great washed down with 1/2 L beers!). All in all an mind-blowing experience.
I'll let Manda tell you all about the photo below. Maddie, I will however tell you it was a very large night and Manda was well and truly amongst it (for better or worse i couldn't say...). We had a white dress party; yours truly cross dressed as a female (lots of unwanted attention from males and females - is this common when out ladies??!!) and Manda wore a lovely white dress too! Great night! Lots of sore heads the next day for a moving walking tour. Now on bus to Amsterdam so the looseness may continue!!! Yeahhhhhh!!!
Aidans experience of soft sour worms in his jocks a real experience for him! Lesson learnt; don't get too drunk next time!
