Nach Berlin!

Hello everbody, I just wanted to let you all know that I'm going to be incommunicado for the next six days. I am travelling to Berlin through my exchange program, where I will stay in a hostel with sixty or so of my fellow exchange students. We'll be partaking in at least one structured event per day, and for your enjoyment I present to you what we'll be seeing: Wednesday
  • Driving tour of Berlin
  • Monument of the Murdered Jews
Thursday
  • Tour of the Museum on Normannenstraße, original headquarters of State Security of East Germany (the Stasi) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staatssicherheit#Museum_in_the_old_headquarters for more infos...
Friday
  • Tour of Castle Sanssouci and free time in Postdam
Saturday
  • Walk through the Reichstag
  • Museum visit of our choice from the Germany History Museum, Jewish Museum, and Pergamonmuseum (Islamic Museum)
Tuesday and Sunday will be consumed by the 8 hour bus ride, and then through out the week we get a lot of free time to get out and enjoy Berlin on our own. I'm really looking forward to this adventure... I've heard so much about the city, I want to get out and experience it myself.

And that's that. I'll be sure to post you guys when I get back and let you know all the sweet things I did and saw :)
