A city that feels like home

We had a good train trip from Warsaw, the train left at 6.40am so it was an early start for us. We both slept well in our hotel in Warsaw, it was so nice and dark, something that has been lacking since we left Moscow. I just love a dark room and hotels/apartments just don't seem to have dark curtains.

We arrived into Berlin at 12.30, the train station in Berlin is amazing, we had no real difficulties trying to find where we had to go to catch our train to our apartment, it is very well sign posted and easy to understand the metro system!

Out apartment in Berlin is really lovely! It feels like we are living here. We did some groceries and actually cooked dinner, it was nice to eat in, we even had a nice bottle of wine.

Today was 28 degrees, it was absolutely gorgeous. We took a good walk around getting to know the city. I have been here before but that was 13 years ago, it is a bit of a drunken blur!

It really feels like Melbourne here sort of crossed with London. We both feel very at home!

We went to a beer Keller for lunch, sausages and beer, yum!!

So far, I am really enjoying it here. It is quirky, a bit arty and modern but with an historical feel.

The next few days will be spent seeing the sights and enjoying some museums. There is so much to do here, I think you could stay here a year and not even see all of the sights. This is what travel is about!!
