Well, we have been back from Berlin for a week and have just got around to uploading all my photos. We had a fantastic time and we were so glad to get back to this fascinating city which has such an interesting but terrible past. Im not going to do a proper trippie, but will post a series of photos to give you some idea of just how interesting the city is.
We stayed in the Mercure Checkpoint Charlie (No 1 in TA). We only paid £355 for our two nights (3 days). This included a full German buffet breakfast and tickets for the Blueman Group.





We thought that we would start off our day with a quick walk up to Checkpoint Charlie





and then it was on to have some delicious German coffee and cheesecake before taking the underground to the famous Berlin Zoo.






Getting around on the underground is so easy and in about 15 minutes we were at the zoo. It is so impressive - big and spacious. The thing that impressed me was just how much space the animals had to roam around
