Wednesday, March 19

Today we woke up one hour early to see the Reichstag. I thought that the Reichstag was cool because we got to climb into a large glass dome and see most of Berlin from above. After visiting the Reichstag we traveled to the Holocaust Memorial. The Holocaust Memorial is a section of Berlin filled with over 2000 cement blocks of different shapes and sizes. You get a very eerie feeling when walking through the Memorial because it is confusing and you lose your general sense of direction. After exploring the maze of cement blocks, we went to the underground part of the Memorial. This area had lots of information about what happened in the 1940’s. I found that reading about how many people suffered back then was very depressing.
