Berlin!! :D

As usually before trips the anxiety takes place in me, and I wake up early. The trip to Berlin wasn't different. So in the bus I slept the entire time like almost everybody.
When we got there we went to Branderburger Tor, which everybody pictures it when thinks of Berlin. The city was full of people due to the celebration of the 20 years for the fall of the Berlin Wall. Giant domino pieces were where the Berlin Wall stood. These gave the city so much colour and life because they were full of different grafittis in resemblance to how it is what's left of the Berlin Wall.
We went to a visit to the Reichstag- The german Parliament. And we also visit its dome with a magnificent view over the city of Berlin.
Then we passed again through Branderburger Tor and went to the Jüdische Mahnmal, which is a monument to remember the jews that died in the Holocaust.
After that we went to Potsdamer Platz, and on the way, we found a band acting on the middle of the street with a fantastic sound and a great vibe!
Then it was time to eat and the obvious choice was Mcdonald's! :D
It started to get dark, time ran fast when we're having fun...
So we went to Berliner Dom, that is a well-known church and to see the Fernsehturm (Tv tower), that is second tallest structure of the European Union.
And we finish our trip in the Berlin Wall and of course we made lots and lots of pictures!
It was time to go with the promise of returning to Berlin on December to see the Christmas decorations.
The comeback trip was very funny, with disney songs sung in various languages (portuguese, polish, italian, greek, english and german), political discussions and some gossip!

Ich (L) Berlin! :)

Ps- The episode with the lady that put herself in front of the camera while we were taking a picture is memorable! xD
