Happy Halloween! October 31, 2009

Happy Halloween! Today I separated from the group again. I started the day by heading to the William memorial which is a church that was bombed in WWII. In remembrance, they never rebuilt the church and is now just the ruins.

Afterwards I wandered the Kufurstendamm shopping area and also made a stop at KaDeWe, which is Germany’s largest department store.

From there I headed to the GDR museum. It didn’t really look like anything especially extraordinary to me. Basically it just looked like stuff from the 60s.

After the museum, I took a quick tour of the Berlin Dom Cathedral.

After that I headed back to our hotel for our 2:45pm departure. Since I arrived early, I looked in a few more shops and found some stuff I liked. Once our group was complete (about 45 minutes later), we dropped off Dena at the train station and then headed to Leipzig. At the hotel in Leipzig, we had dinner, rearranged our suitcases, and went to sleep.
