We took photos with every Berlin Bear we saw, this was one out of 10.

The Eastside gallery, 1.3km section of the Berlin wall that's been painted by various artists. Really cool to see!

Sachsenhausen concentration camp. Second concentration camp I've been to. They don't get easier to endure, but as horrible as it is, this one was nothing compared to Auschwitz in Poland.

Charlottenburg Palace.

This was the memorial for Knut the polar bear who passed away 5 days before we got there. I'm glad I got to see him in 2009, the last time I was there.

Standing outside the Olympic stadium, originally built for the 1936 summer olympics.

Outside the Reichstag, parliament of the German empire, which opened in 1894.

The Jewish memorial.

The tv tower... or Fernsehturm

This is Berliner Dom, which is Berlin Cathedral. We didnt go inside, mainly because we didnt realise what it was until later on that day!

Then we went to Brandenburger Tor (The Brandenburg gate)

Second stop, one of the remaining sections of the Berlin wall.

Went to Berlin on the 25th March. We arrived early in the morning and went straight into the site-seeing! First stop - Checkpoint Charlie
