10-June: Wir fahren nach Berlin!

Another lovely breakfast at the hotel and we were ready for travels!  We had a long train ride (~5hrs) from Köln to Berlin so decided to head out early.  On the train there were lots of stinky people... I figured we would be the stinky ones, after washing our clothes in the sink, and walking around everyday on our trip, but some of the older people here must only bathe once a week.  I do have to say, that it can be a health hazard for me to take my shoes off... my feet smell awful, even after washing them, they are still pungent.  I have to rub them down with alcohol and then wash them just to get the smell off.  Our hotel in Berlin is by the Zoo... hope it doesn't stink too.

We arrived in Berlin and got right on the S-bahn to go to our hotel.  The hotel is more like a hostel, private rooms, but shared shower/toilet... its a little odd.  There is an old Protestant church nearby, it was partially destroyed in WWII but still stands and serves as a memorial.  The top is broken off, looks like a chipped tooth.
