Berlin - being abroad in Germany. On the Karl Marx Allee






I woke up in the middle of the night when Scott called the reception and voiced his disapproval about hearing vulgar words from next door. And once again he proved to be effective party killer.

In the morning we had planned to go to Silo for brunch, but by the time we got up, dressed and packed, it was almost noon and once again we made our way to our own eatery and had some sandwiches and corn flakes. Also when passing the reception, Scott used the chance and and told them how disappointed we are that an esteemed hotel like that allows closed parties where neighbours are not invited. And offered that a small discount might make up a bit for the fact that we were not invited. We got one night's money back and the girl apologised that without manager's approval she's unable to refund the second night too.

Main goal for the day was to walk down Karl Marx Alley and check out those pompous buildings lining the alley. We walked to the Boxhagener Platz, visited the only open Christmas Market in town, which turned out to be closed after all, walked some more and went back to Alexanderplatz to have lunch there. After pizza and salad we had around one hour before we had to head back to the hotel to pick up our bags and leave to airport. The TV Tower was still hidden in thick fog, so we thought it would be a good idea to go there and see, if with the zero visibility we can go up for half price. Turned out that the package was full price for zero visibility.
