Warnemunde (Berlin) Germany (Trip Pics)

Our port for today was Warnemunde, Germany.  We opted for a tour to Berlin.  We bored the train in Warnemunde and traveled approx. 3 hours to Berlin.  It was a nice ride to Berlin.  It was raining when we started but was nice and sunny by the time we got to Berlin.

Below are a few pictures of the East Side Gallery.  It is one of the few surviving pieces of the Berlin Wall.  Artists from all over the world were invited to paint on the wall for this memorial of freedom.










This tour group looked like fun.  They were all dressed in pirate gear.

I've never see a 3 wheel scooter before

I want to try one of these bike.  I hoping to find a place with them in the US.  They seat 7 people and looked like a ton of fun.
