Berlin Sightseeing

It’s nice being able to spend some time in berlin. There is literally tons of things for people to do including many museums (plenty of history abounds) and many tours including some fun ones like a Segway tour. One of the ones recommended to me by a work colleague was the Berlin Underground tour, a tour that takes you to a bunker below one of the U-Bhan stops and attempts to ensure the memory and the stories of the people at the time live on. It’s a really great tour, and very popular with apparently up to 200, 000 people doing it every year.

We then headed over to the Märkisches Museum stop, where we found there was a couple of bears out in the open. Even though I’d stayed in the area, I had no idea these bears were there. There’s a bit of controversy about them because the bears don’t seem to have that much space. I’m sure it’s an okay life but not quite the same conditions as being in the open.

The bear just doing some circling around.

We then made our way down to Tempelhof Central Airport, a decommissioned airport that everyone uses for a buzzing amount of outdoor activities. We saw plenty of riding, running, kiting and many out door activities.

Even a bit of wind boarding that looked particularly hard.

Plenty of fun!
