After a night in the East German designed hostel I took my Florida friends on a quickie tour of Berlin before we hit the road to Dresden. First stop is the train station. We each bought all day tickets that allowed us to use the buses, trams and the subway and off to the Turkish Market in Kreuzberg near the Kottbusser Tor. This street market is overflowing with art, jewelry, fabrics, food, veg, etc. etc. It’s a great way to spend an hour, nosh and pick up an authentic souvenir.
The Tier Garten, Brandenburger Gate, Reichstag Building, Fernsehturm, tall old pointy things were next on the list.
