A bit of History - Berlin

I'm not going to pretend to be an expert on German history, so...

During our time in Berlin we joined thousands of other tourists and tried to pack as much into one day as possible, here's a series of images we captured that should give you the gist.

30+ Hour Transit

So 30+ hours of travel took its toll early this week. I ended up losing count on the actual hours but it worked out to be:

Adelaide - Singapore = 6 hours
Singapore Airport = 6 hours
Singapore - Helsinki = 13 hours
Helsinki Airport = 1 hour
Helsinki - Paris = 3 hours
Paris train-station = 3 hours
Paris - Brussels - Rotterdam - Breda = 5 hours

Anyway we decided to call it quits in Brussels after a long haul which turned out to be a great call. We spent two nights in what is a really nice city...
