Berlin & Prague



Our enormous Czech meal!















What Min and I woke up to everyday...
The next morning we actually missed our 7 AM train out of Amsterdam but when we got to the train station at 9 AM they said to just grab the next one in 20 minutes, so no big deal.  We got into Berlin around 4 PM and it was raining bad and just seemed very dreary.  By the time we got to the hostel and got settled it was 6 PM and we decided to just go to a local bar and watch the NFL.  It was pretty fun and we even met a guy who plays offensive line for a Berlin football team. 
The next morning we went to Prague and got there around 6:30 PM.  The hostel was amazing, no bunk beds, just the 3 of us, with a separate dining room and kitchen with a fridge and microwave.  We even had a TV even if out of 200 channels the only English one was CNN International.  That night we went for a real Czech meal and Min and I wanted to split the enormous meat platter but due to a miscommunication problem ended up with 1 each.  It was sooo much food but luckily we had a fridge this time to put the leftovers in.  The rest of the night we went to the main city center and checked out the bars.  The next day we took a walking tour of the city.  It was about 2 hours and our tour guide Jeff was great.  We saw the astronomical clock, some castles, churches, and cemeteries and learned a whole lot of Czech history.  We walked around a bit more and then went out again to the main city center at night.  Overall, Prague was one of the best cities we visited.

Africa Part 2

On our 4th day in Africa we went to Lake Manyara part which was much different and more jungle like then the rest of the parks.  This park was pretty much overrun by baboons and we also found a hippo pool and watched as 8 of them came out onto land.  On the 5th day we drove to the Serengeti and stopped to look into the huge Ngorogoro crater.  We got to watch a lion stalk a group of gazelles and then saw a cheetah too!  Lastly we saw some lion cubs.  TBC tomorrow...
