Germany, Japan and Italy

Due to the special relationship among these three countries during WWII, we have massive and over the top embassy in Berlin. All decorated with limestone. The street is even named after Hiroshima. Next to us is Italian embassy which is even bigger than ours.

German Dinner

You have to eat German food in Germany. Beer, meat and potatoes.
Basically big meatballs with some pickles. Not the best but ok good.

Modern and Neat

Next to the hotel there is Sony plaza which is half covered cool complex.
When I came back to the room, my toiletries have been organized like this. Wow, it must be a German thing.

Walking Berlin TWO

Many interesting architectures throughout the walk. Many of them have been destroyed by WWII sadly.
Fortunately the weather is nice even though colder than I anticipated.
Part of the history in the middle of the city. Can't believe that there were walls 20 years ago in this modern city.

Waking Berlin ONE

Actually this is my second time to be here, but the last time was like 15 years ago.
Started from the edge of the park and through the main street in the city.
Do you see the person in the traffic lights? One of the cutest so far I have seen.

Healthy Start

Before eating heavy German food, a light breakfast at the lounge. German instead of Dutch is refreshing in my ears.

Spoiled

In terms of the quality, one of the best room even though it is not huge.
Japanese style bathroom meaning a deep tub and washing area in one room.
Watching TV from the tub.
Front desk person was a quarter Japanese. Grandpa is Japanese but he does not know anything about him. Because he is a half Turkish, very difficult to see Japanese features.
