Up at sparrows fart this morning to get me to the airport for 6 am to catch a flight to Berlin, everything went well and I arrived in the city in plenty of time to take a wander and get my bearings before checking in to my accommodation. During my walk I didn’t get to see much street art but I have a walking tour arranged fo tomorrow so I’m hopeful of seeing plenty.
Today was mainly about getting my bearings and going to places like the Brandenburg Gate, The Reichtag, Tiergarten, Siegessaule, and Alexanderplatz which is very near where I am staying.
In the evening I took a train along Friedrichstrasse o have dinner in the Berliner Republik and Brokers Beirorse, this was an interesting place, the food and beer was very good and the beer prices were displayed on large brokerage screens wth the prices rising or following dependant on demand. I took a slow stroll back to a ell deserved early night, all in all it was a very good day and I’m sure ill enjoy the rest of my time in Berlin.
