Hello from Berlin!! So Hannes was there to pick us up at a bright 735am this morning. It was so nice of him. Once we got back to his apartment we all went back to sleep until about noon!! after2 nights on a train, a night ofcamping, and some late nights in rome we just couldnt stay awake anymore. After waking up and taking the BEST shower (even better than camping shower) the entire trip we went out to get some food. We had this Kebab thinhg were the meat is rotisseried vertically and is shaved off. then its put into this tortilla/flat bread thingy with sauce lettuce and tomate. It was pretty good!! i took a picture because the Kebab was insane! then after that we went to the small exhibit from the berlin wall and took pictures there. Then we walked through this Holocause memorial thing that was way interesting. it was a ton of cement blocks that were different sizes. It was good. I took a bunch of pictures. Then we headed to the German city hall and sat outside to relax. It seemed like a storm was going to roll in so we headed back to Hannes's apartment for some relaxation. Right now we are watching "football" as it is the first game of Germanys season. We are supposed to go to a party tonight but i think i might pass. I am so incredibly tired right now and we have a very early morning because Hannes has a field hockey tournament thet he has to go to. So the plan now is tomoorrow head to teh station to drop our bags off then head out to the concentration camp that is sear by along with a holocause meusem. Then its off to the biggest chocolate store in... something. not sure if its the city or the country or something... ut i hear its big. Then we are taking teh night train to Brussels. Unfortunately we couldnt find accomodation in Amsterdam so we will be making that a day trip on teh 12th.

Again, as always, i LOVE the messages from everyone and miss you guys!!!

Hopefully i will be able to write before Dublin (13th or 14th) but if not i will see you then!!!

=)

xoxo,
