I hope it's not too late to post my Berlin trip. Let me reminisce about my life in Europe after 1 month I'm back in Malaysia. Williams, Jia Ning and me visited Berlin from 7th to 10th Dec. The weather was super cold for that few days and snowed heavily. My boots were wet but not as bad as when I was in Italy (which I will blog about it later).
I've forgotten what time we reached Berlin, but the sky was already dark. Well during winter, the sky gets dark around 5pm, which I was cheated by it a few times to have really early dinner. LOL
After check in to our hostel, we headed off for our dinner. That's my dinner, my beloved pork ribs :D
We followed the Berlin free tour the next morning to get to know more historical places in Berlin as well as places of interest. I'm truly amazed how Berlin or I should say Germany can be this successful although the Berlin wall fell for only less than 50 years. Considering Malaysia has be independent for more than 50 years, our country is really lagging and what a failure.
We were brought to places like Jewish Memorial, Hitler's last residing place, Berliner Dom, and also were introduced to the special beer only in Berlin.
The Holocaust was place in the middle of the city where everyone will pass by everyday and be reminded of the importance of unity and race free mind.
We also visited the island of musuems where there are at least 5 musuems on the island. Well, not those island that you need to take a boat there, but just walk over a bridge.
Class now, continue later!
Ok, having my interval now, shall continue to blog.

Parisien Platz & Brandenberger Tor

The Jewish Memorial - Holocaust
The Holocaust was place in the middle of the city where everyone will pass by everyday and be reminded of the importance of unity and race free mind.
The remaining part of Berlin Wall, the ugly & original
The beautiful side of Berlin Wall - East side gallery. Do not misunderstood, this is totally a different place from the part of wall in the above picture. You will need to go to a different place for this part of wall.
We also visited the island of musuems where there are at least 5 musuems on the island. Well, not those island that you need to take a boat there, but just walk over a bridge.
That's how beautiful it is when it snowed. But it was also very very cold
The German Parliament
Class now, continue later!

Me in front of Berliner Dom
Pergamon musuem, but we didn't go in. Just not my cup of tea.
Played the snow slide
Met up with Sabrina! We have not meet each other since after form 6! that's 8 years. I'm so happy to see her again and knowing she is doing very well in Germany :D
Tried Berliner Weisser. It's yummy~
The next day, we took a trip to the Sachenhausen concentration camp. This is not a death camp, it's more to hard labour camp. But a lot of people died here too. It was a chilly day with the heavy snow and strong wind.
