Berlin

Today we went to Berlin and did a day tour around the city, visiting key sites in the city which gave us many ideas of the cities' history. In particular, we visited a memorial to the Holocaust, which was very powerful and moving, forcing us to think about what had happened. Also, we visited the impressive Berlin Cathedral along with a thought provoking war memorial for the victims of war. Tomorrow we have a day tour of Potsdam. (by Elysha)

 

Auckland-Hong Kong-Frankfurt-Berlin

On the 29th of March 8.00am local time we arrived at Frankfurt Airport after a very long flight from Hong Kong, We then took a very fasinating tour of the city and saw many of the cities old churches and buildings. We saw buildings such as the amazing Frankfurt Cathedral which stood at an outstanding 95 meters tall! Later we had lunch in a nice restaurant and I ate a traditional German meal, it was schnitzel with bbq sauce and hot chips it tasted amazing! (by Scott Hughes)
