We had arranged to do a Fat Tire Bike Tour of the city of Berlin. We met the group at Alexander Plaza at 11 & enjoyed about a 4 1/2 hour biking tour. We had lots of stops to see the sights & have an explanation of what we had or were about to see. Some of the highlights were the Brandenberg Gate, Checkpoint Charlie station, a portion of the Berling Wall that is still standing, the site of Hitler’s bunker, the German Parliament buildings & much more. It was FUN!
After the bike tour, we walked to the Story of Berlin museum & looked around the exhibit.
An added bit of excitement today was the Germans playing in & going on to win the game against Argentina in the quarter finals of the world cup soccer. THE GERMANS DID CELEBRATE THAT WIN!! Made for an exciting subway ride home. :)
