Amsterdam to Berlin: "You can't bring me down like that WALL"

May 25th- May 28th



My last entry was regarding Amsterdamage and that Chinese restaurant. Needless to say that night led to cocktails until 5 am and me resorting to drinking Jack Daniels because I was naive and couldn't get drunk......puhhshhhhhhhh..I did get drunk and with help of the camera/video recorder I am sliding down poles....will be posted soon

Berlin: We passed over Hannover and crossed the river of Elbe and made our way into Germany. It was time to explore the lively city ( indeed it was lively) We went on a 3 hour walking tour that lead Alex to blister hell and lead me to almost blow out my right knee on the sidewalk because I don't know how to walk and I tripped. IT was funny..no pictures of that though.

Here is my journal entry:

Welp if anything its 5 million facts on Berlin and that damn Wall. Tons of history today, but I am choosing to leave it here and take the finer things like the club scene. Our hostel was amazing called Wombats and had a bar on the top roof. We roomed with the Twins again and I still don't know their names that's why I just call them the "twins". Alex and I ventured into the city after our 3 hr walking tour. Alex proceeded to loose all desire to walk when she discovered her new flip flops where on the hunt to kill her feet. Bad News. In order to reevaluate the pain we decided to go on a pub crawl. I donned a scarf that was later transformed into Rambo's headband. (pics) We had an eye spy pub crawl where miss competitor herself decided to go big or go home. Sprints and back sweat included to find the clues to each new bar. She wanted to make it to the last pub first to receive the free drinks(which was never true). I am happy I decided to walk with a free pretzel in hand and a to-go beer. It was great fun. The next step was stumbling to a 4 room club where I was traditionally chirped by a German DJ who probably wished that Berlin Wall was still up to send me across it and where I got hit on by a gay guy asking for a free drink. I didn't know if that was mean trick he played and thought I too fuggly for him to buy me a drink or if he was gay and they prefer women to buy them drinks???? In the end I told him to buzz off. After that the bartender took fancy to my humor and that gave me an idea to go behind the bar and try to pour myself a vodka on the rocks without him seeing.......I was caught, but I got to wear his hat. The night was concluded with a lil photo booth drunk action and a snooze. Prague awaits us! "
