Berlin Day 7



Friday:
That day we went to the Olympic stadium of Games of the XI Olympiad held in Berlin. The architecture was amazing for something built around 1936. There were little write-ups posted everywhere on the history of it dealing with the wars, Hitler and so-forth. After that we went to the site of Checkpoint Charlie and saw a line (which runs through the whole of Berlin) signifying where the Berlin wall once stood. I had a crêpe and ate some more brats. Oh, and more ice cream, YAY! We went into a GIGANTIC chocolate store with replicas of Berlin monuments made of chocolate. I can’t believe we went all the way there to buy Trinidadian and Tobagonian chocolate. We ate at a cosy, Italian, family restaurant with nice people.
