Time: 5:03 PM CEST
Location: Park Plaza Hotel

Just got back from the Berlin tour (Day 1). I swear, Mom and her tour buses.

But first I will finish with Dresden.

Okay back to Thursday afternoon. Der Zwinger. (Remember, pronounce W’s like a V and the V’s like an F). Um it’s a courtyard and um it was pretty and the clouds where getting dark. (Literally not figuratively). Inside the Zwinger was a porcelain museum (procelain museum: clink). Vases, plates, dishes, animals and statues. (Okay, actually the statues were impressive).

Outside of the Zwinger, we had lunch and then it began to pour. Asparagus salad (green & white with lettuce and surprisingly good strawberry hollandaise sauce), a tiny Pepsi and... plum cake and milchkaffee (moca-ish coffee).
And finally die Sempraoper (sp?) It’s an opera house. The line was long and the presentation was wordy and we were running late. It was around 4 and I still had 2 hours of driving to do.

I had to get gas for the first time, well, diesel actually. 60 liters @ 1.23 euros per liters = 74+ euros. So quite your bitching about $3 gas.
Damn, Berlin is tiring. Later on that.
