Berlin Day 1 Wednesday 7th

Day 1
Our first full day in Berlin was an eye opener.  Firstly we realised that the train station was less than a hundred yards from the Park Inn Hotel where we were staying. On our arrival the previous night we took a taxi from the Airport which set us back 40 euro. The train fair was 2.80 each.  Something to bear in mind for the next time.  Wednesday morning was spent on a city bus tour which took us through from East - West Berlin and lasting 2 hrs it gave us a fair idea of the City and its most important aspects. Temperatures were touching the low 20's so it was very pleasent indeed. Again one was struck by the pure vastness of the place and the enormity of its amenities. Very iser friendly.  Wide Boulevards edged by large Autumnal Parks.  We were falling in love with the place already.....and we barely looked at shops.  WOW !
