Germany

Halo All, todays update come from the amazing city of Berlin. We have been here for 4 nights now and we head off tomorrow to Prague in the Czech Republic. Berlin has been very interesting and diverse, from finding the best opp shop in the world so far (we both got some cool stuff and so did Danielle) to learning of the troubled past of Berlin on a bike tour, there is definitely something to keep you going for ages in this place ! We have seen bits of the old Berlin Wall, the Brandenburg gates which have witnessed everything from Napoleon, Adolf Hitler, the Russians and Michael Jackson hanging babies over balconies (just up the road a bit), where Hitler died and a moving memorial to the Holocaust victims. We are staying in the old East Germany, so a lot of the bars and buildings here have lots of soviet memorabilia, certainly fascinating stuff. We have also been lucky enough to stumble upon markets were plenty of Nazi and Soviet treasures could be found. Tonight there is a massive game of soccer with Germany playing the Poles and apparently the 2 aren't the best of mates (something about an invasion in 1939 still causes some issues) so we are trying to head down to a popular spot to watch the game with thousands of locals (we just wont wear any red clothing).

Sorry about the delay in replying but internet is hard to find here ( damn commie infrastructure!). Only Kidding

Jus (informal for goodbye apparently)
