Berlin Dinner and Club Experience

Dinner first. We went to this cafe/restaurant that was recommended by our good friend Rick Steves. He did not disappoint. I had this amazing dish which translated was called "Southern German Dough Specialty with meat and vegetables." Basically it a type of German meat filled ravioli, but it wasn't fully enclosed. It also had egg and onions cooked into it. I wish I could describe it better, but it was delicious. Jen got some lamb sausages which were also pretty tasty. And again, the beer was excellent.

The club was hilarious and awesome at the same time. Our hostel gave us a voucher to get in free at this huuuuge club. There were 4 dance floors and all kinds of bars. We went with these two cool Chicago guys who were on their post-highschool trip (seems to be a trend...), but anyway we had a great time. It was hilarious because on the dance floor we stayed on most of the night, one of the first songs that played was YMCA and from there a string of German dance songs, American pop, and the type of song that gets played at every wedding. Everyone was really in to it, clapping and jumping around. I loved it. Also of note was the equal-opportunity go-go dancers. They first had a guy go up on the bar thing and dance, followed by a scantily clad lady, and then followed by a guy and a girl dancing together. So yes, it was a lot of fun and we'll probably be hitting up some other club tonight.

Today we're probably going to just wander around a bit. We may queue up and try and walk the Reichstag dome. Also, a bunch of museums are free today during the last four hours they are open so we might try to check some of those out. Tonight we'll be meeting up with Jens, Danny's friend he met while studying in Ireland.

viel spaß
