If you know of Fat Tire Bike Tours, you know they are the best way to see a city; they have tours in Paris, London, Berlin, and Barcelona, and they are a great way to see a city and meet interesting people along the way. On day 3 I took the Berlin City tour; theme for the day was WWII and Cold War. Took many pictures on the tour, but only 2 made it to the blog.
The German Parliament Building
An older part of the wall
Several shots from East Side Gallery (currently being painted for 20 anniversary); I walked this 1km stretch of the wall after the bike tour ended.
After seeing the wall I headed over to the Jewish Museum; I really wish I had more time and energy to take advantage of this wonderful museum. Everything is just very well done, chocked full of interesting history and delivered in many different mediums so that one does not get bored. But it was the end of a long day for me and I just didn’t have the energy to soak it all in. I did learn several new things though, and for the small 5€ entry fee, it was totally worth the trip. The museum also has a nice restaurant on site, which is where I had dinner. I highly recommend this museum.
