Berlin

We arrived in Berlin Friday night and found our way through the Mitte to our hostel, Helter Skelter. Our first day in Berlin was museum crazy. We saw the Pergamon (which we got into for free!), the Topography of Terror,  Checkpoint Charlie, the Monument to the murdered jews in europe, the homosexual memorial, and even managed to squeeze in a night visit to the Hamburger Banhof. Each museum/memorial was amazing and so informative. I lucked out traveling with Cason because he has studied all of the art we saw at the Pergamon and was my personal tour guide through the beautiful arabic exhibitions. Our roles switched at the Hamburger Banhof when I took Cason on a tour of Berlin's equivalent to MoMA.
