Touring Berlin and the GAY PARADE!!!!!

Today we woke up and we had bread with Nutella it was so good! Then we left for downtown Berlin first we went to the TV tower and we went to the very top which was 238.2 meters high it was really cool. After we met Kaelei's relative Jason and he spent the rest of the day with us. After we saw walked by the Gay parade it was a very VERY new experience! This parade is ONLY once a year and it just happened to be today. Lucky us! (sarcastically) Then we went to the Dom which was a church it was cool but we didn't get to go inside. Then we went and ate at conniecenter and we ate. After we went and saw the Hololcaust-Mahnmal there were big cement blocks there were 2,700 of them it was really cool! We also went to the Brandenburger Tor and Paris place this was the gate you could go from the east side to the west side. We got to see where some of the Berlin wall used to stand and we stood in both the east and west side at the same time. We saw a memory church called Gedaehtnickirche it was a church that got bombed a long time ago. Then we took a subway to Check point Charlie and Kaelei and Lisha got their passports stamped it was awesome! We also saw the Gendarmenmarkt, in like the 1800's the police used to put their horses there, on either side of it there were 2 doms, one of them was Germany's and the other was France's. After we said goodbye to Jason and we went back home and we got DONER'S they are SO GOOD!!!!! And then we watched "Music and lyrics" it was really good!

Going to Berlin and meeting Christiane

Today Kaelei, Kali, and Tori went swimming they taught Tori a few new swim things and swam. After they were done they went back to Quinn's and Kali decided she wanted to go to school so she went. She went to Max's class and said she didn't really do a whole lot but that it was fun. After school was over she went to Max's house and laughed and talked. While Kali was at school Kaelei and Lisha went with Quinn to help her teach her English class. It was so much fun to watch the little kids learn new words and sing and dance. Its funny to think that those cute little 2nd graders know better English than we do German. When they got home they were so tired so they took naps for a while and then Kali came home and we all packed for Berlin. At about 2:30 Anna and her mom came to get us to take us to the station. We got on a train to Hannover and then got on a train to Berlin. On the train to Berlin it was very packed full of people for a while we had to stand then we just sat on the floor until a seat opened. We got to Berlin at about 6 and Anna's aunt Christiane came to pick us up. She took us to her apartment, it is very nice and big. After we had taken our stuff in Christiane took Lisha, Anna, and Kaelei for a walk around the Kastanien Allee ( a big street with trees on both sides) we got to try some new pizza it was really good. Kali decided to stay home and sleep cuz she was tired so we brought her home pizza. While we were out we went and rented "Just my luck" and "Music and Lyrics" and then we went and got chips and candy. We came back to the house and we watched "Just my luck" it was so much fun!!!
