Last Week in Berlin

Below are some pictures of my last week in Berlin. I miss it already! I became so accustomed to living there. I was so sad to leave! I will miss the history and the museums. I will miss the organized, practical public transportation system. I will miss the amazing bread! I will miss my host family. Here is how I spent my last few days there:

We went to the GDR museum. It was really interesting to learn about East Germany. I also liked that it was interactive! I sat in a Trabbi (the East Germany cars) and Katelyn and I dressed up like soldiers.

We also watched the Fußball game from the fan mile that stretches between the Brandenburg Gate and the Victory Column (Deutschland won!):

We also went up the dome of the Reichstag (or Parliament building). It is an interesting combination of old and modern architecture. 

 We spent our last Sunday at the Charlottenburg Palace. I am not a huge fan of baroque/rococo so I didn't love the gaudy interior. Maybe my inner American revolutionary spirit rebels against monarchies on principle. But anyway, I loved the gardens:
