Berlin day 2

Today we got up and we went to this fantastic breakfast - it seemed like every one was happy with it. We soon left to go to the old part of the city and we saw the old wall and one of the oldest restaurants in the city. Then we went to a church which was bombed during World War II. We soon left to another church (Nikolai-Church - the oldest in Berlin) with a shopping mall but it was closing time. We walked around the stores and we all got some gifts. Then we were walking and we hit this plaza which is dedicated to the leaders of the Communist movement in the 19th century. We continued walking and hit this street vender and we got sucked into his theme. - I bought a fake gas mask which I thought was real and the guys bought these Russian hats which was cool.

Then we got to the German History Museum. We visited an exhibition about journalistic photography which was odd to my taste but it was ok.

Next we got some amazing lunch –it was a German restaurant and the food was very tasty. Every one seemed to be happy with it.

We went to Check Point Charlie witch was kinda short and I wanna see again. On this shopping street (Friedrichstrasse), we wandered around and saw this 6,000 Euros watch (which translates to more then $ 9,000). Then we discovered the Bugati car store. They had a $ 2.3 million car which will be released soon. We left to see the Brandenburg Gate which was amazing. Next to the Gate we found and Starbucks and we had a drink there.
