The Trip to Europe - Part VI

Welcome back!
Before you start reading this post, I'd suggest you take a look at the photos below.
1. The panoramic view from the edge of the pier at Binz.
2,3. Koenigstuhl, as viewed from Binz.
The rest: the Baltic beach(es).

In Europe, one generally gets drinking water straight from the tap. In India, we filter our water using, guess what, filtering machines. So, we are not used to drinking from the sink. That is also the reason why we bought a buttload (not literally (yes, buttload was a measure of capacity used in olden times)) of water.

The next day, we went to Bergen auf Ruegen, then boarded the train to Stralsund, where I ate a partially tasty (I don't specify good or bad because there wasn't enough taste to distinguish) Mediterranean Shwawarma (I think that's phonetically correct). From Stralsund, we went to Berlin by train.

Silly us, we got off one (or more) station(s) before the Hauptbahnhof, in a suburb. This mistake turned out to be a lucky one - our hotel was closer to this station than the Hbf (obvious abbreviation).

The hotel was nice - featuring the most (I feel) well-known cuisine in the world - the Italian. More importantly, they had what everyone looks out for - complimentary Wi-Fi!

The city hop-on-hop-off tour was, again, very nice. You could also see the big, white ugly American spy instalments there.

We also visited Spreewald! Another pleasant train journey to and from Lubbenau.

Well, further further.....
