Visit Berlin virtually

[Happy Times]

Nice, i visited both briefly as planned before.
In Berlin we took your advice and mostly just walked around.
We did take a short tourbus ride first to get our bearings tough.
Some observations.
Germany doesnt work, look or feel very foreign to Skandinavians.
It would be very easy to move there, without a culture shock.
For some tourists it can make it boring maybe.

You can easily travel with your own car. Even Berlins traffic in the rush hours works like it should.

The people are very nice and eager to help.
Some tought we were Germans, but the service was just as good when we turned out to be tourists.
Berliners seem to have a dry sense of humor that works for me also.

The architecture of Berlin suprised me.
Honestly the modern Mitte is ugly as hell. It should be rebombed..
The old parts that survive are beutiful.
The surrounding apartment areas looked the same as older parts of Helsinki and Tampere in Finland. Im ready to bet the architects studied in Berlin..

There is a serious graffiti problem in Berlin. I know there were big May day riots but im sure many were older than few days.
I would recommend heavy penalties for these terrorists.

Lübeck is beautiful, im planning to go back in the end of summer. A true summer destination that i can recommend to everyone.

It was a nice trip but too short, so im going to have return as soon as possible.
