Sensobus just made my day!

Berlin is packed with history and since we all wanted to see different stuff in the city we split up for some things to utilize our time there. During our 3 days there I saw Checkpoint Charlie, which was the only section where you could cross the Berlin wall when it was up. At this point they had a museum all about the History of the Berlin wall. It was very interesting reading about the different ways people escaped to the other side of the wall. Elliott and I spent our afternoon there. The next day Squaynlee (Elliott,Caitlin, and I)went to to Topogragphie des terrors a free museums about the history of Nazis. After that we went to a Jewish museum that we kinda rushed through because we had to meet Paige. It was huge and about 4 floors. The last day we went to the East side gallery, which is paintings on the Berlin wall. We also went up the TV tower and got a great view of all of Berlin.

From Berlin we Traveled to Bruges. We spent 2 nights in Bruges and just explored the city. We arrived in Bruges around 7pm and we didn't leave the hostel till about 8:30pm and we were bummed to discover that most of the town was closed down at 9pm. The last day in Bruges we stumbled upon the Sensobus! We were just curious about it and when the lady came out and asked us if we wanted to go in the bus and eat cake we were practically running to get free cake. In the Sensobus we got to do a quick survey, drink water, and eat 6 pieces of cake and rate best to worst. After they let us take the cake and gave us free chocolate for doing the survey. Note to self manage a sensobus!


Today we left Bruges and arrived in Paris this evening. We will be spending the next 4 days here. We will be having packed days here so I better sleep now so I can wake up tomorrow. I will try and load more pictures later.
