Sunday, we went to the Reichstag. I didn't know what to do beforehand, so I went to the Tiergarten (which is right near the Reichstag) and walked around for about an hour and a half. It still amazes me that I live in this massive city, yet I can still find peaceful, green places like this! |
| The Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe |
I was there last December as well, but this time we actually got a tour of the inside of the Reichstag! The tour itself was a little boring, but it was cool seeing the inside.

On Tuesday, we went to an art museum for our German class. It was actually the same museum that I went to last December, so I was thoroughly bored - not to mention that I don't like art museums much. I didn't take any pictures...so just imagine a lot of boring paintings picturing Mary and the baby Jesus (I'm not even kidding - that's what most of this museum was).
On Wednesday, Tyler and I took a tour through a bunker used during WW2 and the Cold War. The bunker that we went to is actually in an U-Bahn Station, which is pretty cool! The tour itself was very interesting and informative - but we weren't allowed to take pictures inside :(
Tomorrow we have another German test, which will determine which German class we will be in for the rest of the semester. I'm not worried about it - I don't really care what class I get in to!
Other than that, I fly down to my mom on Saturday, and will stay there for a week! So my posts will come from Southern Germany for a week! We're planning on doing a couple of day trips as well as some relaxing days!
