I arrived in Berlin Thursday night after spending ten hours on two trains from Lausanne to Berlin. When I arrived in Berlin it took me a while to figure out how the metro worked so I could get to my hotel. This included dealing with two people at the Tourist Information office at the Berlin Central Station that did not like dealing with tourists.
The Neues museum in Berlin was built in the mid-1800s and was badly damaged in World War II. While many of the artifacts were moved for their protection, many ancient artifacts were lost.
I visited the DDR museum. The museum is a fun place to spend time. It allows you to imagine what it was like to live in East Germany. The Volvo limo was used by the Secretary of Agriculture in the early 1980s.
