After our
visit in the city of romance we cross the border to Germany, particularly
Berlin.
We arrived at the Tegel Airport, the only major airport that is still in the city. Berlin had originally three airports but one of them is outside the state and the other is closed.

We saw it
immediately, Berlin is a busy but beautiful city! There is for everyone something
to see or experience. Architecture and history but also contemporary culture
and a wonderful zoo.
I never was
the best of the class in geography so I looked it up for you : Berlin is
located in eastern Germany, and is an enclave in the state of Brandenburg. The
state is also very close to the border of Poland.
In the city you can easily travel by train and trams. We were advised to buy a Berlin Welcome Card, so we can travel for free and get many discounts.

| The Wall of Berlin |
And of
course, everyone knows him : the famous Wall of Berlin. Once, Berlin was
divided by the Berlin Wall. But now the wall is demolished and Berlin is again
one beautiful city, the capital of Germany. In the center of the city you still
can see a part of the wall. This piece is a memorial for freedom and is
decorated with more than 100 paintings by artists from different countries. It
was really wonderful and colorful to see!

| The Zoo of Berlin |
When we walked
through the city, we saw many images of a bear. Very strange, so we informed us
by the local people. They told us that this
bear is the mascot of the city. The bear is also reflected in the arms of the
city, monuments and in the zoos of the city.
They also told us that we definitely had to bring a visit to the Berlin Zoo, so we did. This zoo is known for the birth of Knut, the polar bear. They also have an impressive aquarium with a beautiful underwater world. On cold days you can take a stroll with penguins, which is also very special.

And of
course very important for us, women. You can shop in many large modern shopping
centers. And while we shop, the men can enjoy
the many terraces in the cafes or bistros.
There are
many different festivities, such as the famous Christmas markets, but also
numerous fairs and sporting events. In the evening there is in some beautiful
streets lighted trees, giving it a romantic atmosphere.
Now I'm going
to enjoy of this great and romantic atmosphere. I'll see you in Norway!
