Quick Greetings from Berlin!
I am around the corner from Checkpoint Charlie.
And yes, my first meal in Berlin was indeed Chicken
Tacos. Isn’t that what comes to mind
immediately when you think of
Berlin? *crickets chirping*

| Dresden Opera House |
Anyway…
We left this morning from Prague by bus. It took about two hours to get to Dresden,
Germany. It is also a very pretty city
and former UNESCO World Heritage site. The
rumor is the UNESCO people didn’t like a bridge that Dresden had built so UNESCO removed the status.
We had a couple of hours to walk around and have lunch. (Spanish Tapas – Yum!)
I’ve included some photos of the lovely buildings that we
visited.

| Dresden: Courtyard of Zwinger Museum/Palace |
It took another 3ish
hours to get to Berlin. In case you’re
wondering, some of the streets are not really built for big coach buses to
travel along especially when impatient taxi drivers are still trying to go in
the opposite direction. I thought I
heard scrapping of vehicles but I can not be sure they were real or imagined (the scraping sounds, not the taxis.) ;)

| Dresden: Neumarkt Square...I think |
 |
| Bus on Autobahn |
We also were able to make up some time on the autobahn. I didn’t see any super-duper fast cars
zooming by but we had a movie playing (to get us in the mood for Berlin) so
I could have missed the speedsters.

Thank you Missy for all your information...I LOVE readying and enjoying and learning....I'm anonymous because I can't remember the password.....
@Thena. Can you believe there was a discussion this week about exclamation points not being necessary?!?!
@Anonymous - Been there, done that with the password. I went to China in 2010. Notice there are no posts about it - not because I didn't thoroughly enjoy it but because I couldn't remember how to get to my blog. :)
Not necessary!!!
NO Way!!!!
