Copenhagen & Berlin

So a little over a half-hour after my last post; our wonderful friends, Jen & Christian, tracked down our train passes! We left Bergen 11 hours later and began our 45-day train journey. We spent yesterday in Copenhagen, where we tried to get tickets to the Kobenhavn vs. Barcelona football match. No luck there, so we watched it in the common room of our hostel, which was just as fun with all of the opposing fans! In terms of hostels, they just seem to be getting better as we go (knock on wood....). Lower prices, nicer locations, cleaner, bigger. No complaints in the hostel department.

Today we arrived in Berlin. It is a beautiful city :) There's so much to see and do. We made our way through the metro to a site where they've preserved a large section of the Berlin Wall. It was surreal to think it was once a 150km barrier across the city. Glad we got to see that piece of history. Dropped by the Mini Cooper shop and checked out the merchandise, then made our way to a Starbucks to relax and have a coffee. Found a nearby hostel that is fantastic. The room is one of the nicest so far, and the lowest price!

Tonight we finally caved in and bought mitts and head-gear.... we have been trying to deny that there is a winter coming, but we know it's inevitable.

Tomorrow we're on to Prague! Hopefully we'll post updates every few days or so.

We'll keep you posted.
