Berlin, days 2, 3 and 4

On the second day in Berlin we had the introduction day, getting to know the youth hostel and walking around the place. we also had the international groups put together (Group C!) and had some introduction games so we get to know each other.

That's pretty much for the day because it started raining at night after the other Spanish group leader arrived and had a swim at the lake, which meant that no BBQ as scheduled (instead of great German meat we had crappy sandwiches which NONE of us liked…)

Day 3 and finally some interesting activities! at morning we took the train to Karow and then the underground to Gesumbrunnen. there we had the Bunker tour, which was a one hour long tour in a WWII bunker. it was really nice even though the guide was quite a weirdo…

During the evening we had the “Berlin by boat” activity in which we had a tour in the river  Spree on a German marines boat. Really, really nice! mainly because we had a chance to “taste” Berlin and have a first look at the main important buildings that were around the river. The pic on the left is me after the boat ride on out way back to the train station

Day 4 was boring… its not just my opinion but also most of the kid’s opinions. this is because we had the town rally in which we were slit in teams of 4 or 5 and then given a sheet with lots of questions to fill. it was nice in a way because we had a chance to go in the underground by ourselves (Potsdamer Platz and the Sony Center are AWESOME) but other than that it was WAY too long and tiring (from 11 until 16).
