We are in Berlin
Guten Tag,
We are in Berlin, we arrived here at about 1pm today.. we left the hotel in Prague about 8am this morning and after a few stops got here for lunchtime.. Lee spent his last Czech coins on the most practical thing he could find, a can of beer!!!!! we had about 30 mins when we got here to look around and then we met a guide for a local tour of the main monuments which was good... then we went to an Irish bar for a couple of drinks before dinner which was Pork Kunckle, Sauerkraut and some sort of dumpling.. we got to the hotel about half hour ago and we have come out to an internet cafe to blog and phone home. We are off on a bike tour tomorrow of Berlin for 4.5 hours, more playing with traffic.. Crikey..
Lots of Love

Pictures From Budapest & Prague
Hello..
Just a little post to say hi and get some pics up from the last few days.. Lee went to the concentration camp at Terezin this morning.. It was sad to hear some of the stories we were told on the guided tour.. this afternoon we went into town by metro and had some lunch and a wander around.. Just had some chill time this afternoon as the last few days have been quite busy.. This evening we have just decided to eat in the hotel as it's pissing down outside and they also have free wi-fi in the bar..
We are off to Berlin tomorrow morning for 3 nights.
Lots of Love
