Trip to Berlin on a motorcycle, or back and forth

The concept was born some time ago. We decided, me and my friend, a Spaniard who worked in the Netherlands (yes, I know it's complicated;) that we use leave days may be a little less traditional and family than usual, and we'll go to Berlin, which I love and always happy to visit you, and whose David had never seen before.
I wrote to my friend from college who now sits in Berlin on Erasmus, knowing that sometimes in dormitories rent rooms for the funny money. It was, and so in this case, but frankly - I did not expect that up to be so ridiculous - we paid only 10 euros per room (not per person!) Per night + 30 Euro deposit, which of course was returned to me after passing the key. Room as room, standard dorm, but as long as you can swim and something to cook in the kitchen, it suits me;)
with Kliczków I left around noon, I had to be in Berlin on 16 and assuming that little pobłądzę, even if the student in the district of Teltow, that is, on the outskirts, However, this map can bring googlowska man astray;) I reached just in time to supplement a student residence on the bench at the start of the Polish students I met in Berlin, who prompts me where I can safely leave the moto. I had two options: the inner world, covered parking or a bicycle right next to the dorm. I decided on the latter, because of the terrible stories heard from my friend - a burglar who steals the laptop on the first floor living! The motorcycle is not a laptop, but if the alarm in my howling at the wheel lock is to be heard, sooner under the same akademikiem ;)

Yes packed the Honda started to Beroliny;)

first two days elapsed in the atmosphere walking and visiting places most important for Berlin, such as memorials along the former Berlin Wall, the Museum Island and trendy neighborhoods, no man's land populated by artists, and owners hipsterów variety of eateries and shops, such as Prenzlauer Berg and Kreuzberg. Much time is spent first day in the building of the exhibition "Topography of Terror", which carried us in the history of Nazism from its seeds and causes of the rise to power of Hitler, in Nuremberg after the settlement. Very interesting and accurate picture of events from which to draw the grim conclusion that the human being is both intriguing and ferocious creature that embedded in the drastic economic conditions, economic, moves to an equally dramatic self-defense mechanisms such as searching for a scapegoat.

interesting offer for visitors is a free city tour offered by guides from the company SANDEMANs . About 11 or 13 hours waiting for us at the Starbucks at the Brandenburg Gate to oprowadzić after Berlin and tell a whole lot of interesting anecdotes. Ultimately tour is free, but hardly anyone pays no guides are involved even a small tip. Along with Briton Chris, who arrived nine years ago to Berlin for the girl, and although the girl broke up, it is in Berlin today, walked among other things: Checkpoint Charlie, the Reichstag, the Memorial in honor of the murdered Jews (Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe), Humboldt University and Museum Island. He opened our eyes to aspects of the history of Berlin, which does not know the best guides in Berlin and which may not be aware of the inhabitants themselves. In one word: Excellent! In the city you can fall in love even when he heard the history, growth and the fall of the Berlin Wall, which in my humble opinion - is the most phenomenal history European capitals.

; next two days were marked by the team and park in central Berlin - Tiergarten and Potsdam Sanssouci palace complex, the former summer residence of Frederick the Great, which descent took us over the whole day (olbrzym! access the S-Bahn line 7, and then by bus from the train station) we pulled the Tiergarten on hired bikes (from what I remember 7 euros per half day). Also got the Kunsthalle Tacheles, established artists. Sypiący a building, but fiercely defended by the people of art and their supporters, it is possible that soon will go under the hammer. The land for the facility is too valuable to the city and for potential buyers, but who knows ... Tacheles may be raised yet another generation of artists.

The last day was devoted to śmingusowo-dyngusowe antics, leisurely strolls, buszowanie the stalls with books and gadgets from the DDR era. And also to visit the museum of that period, and the gluttony of Dunkin 'Donuts. To sum up: Tickets - 2.30 euros, valid for all means of communication for 2 hours in one direction. Accommodation - 5 euros per person per night in the dorm, on the assumption that someone you know living in the same dorm do you reservation. Joke - mainly kebabs and store for a hearty breakfast in the dorm, but we can also recommend the Indian restaurant in Prenzlauer Berg, a dish - up to 5 euros. We bought 3 for cooperatives and pękaliśmy. Directions to Berlin - a tank (less than 300 km), the second tank back. Bak Hondziny is 10 liters, so I go over about 110 zł return. It would seem, on the minimal cost, but you know, on vacation does not count cash. So now totally broke, but the memories ... priceless;) Berlin always loved, only to confirm cliches starting to say that old love will not rust;)

Finally, I will also add the anecdote from the tip of my stay. Motorcycle parked in the bike shed, I put the lock with an alarm on the shield, and rear wheel fastened to łubudubu clasp jebitnym bicycle / skuterowo / motorcycle to a wooden pole sheds, however, before fastening it without checking. And when it came down to it, of course, it turned out that span of miracles is not a joke. After a while the struggle doubted myself, I began to think that minilampka in which is provided with a key, the immobilizer and really need to know that the combination, which obviously did not know. Turned the key in different directions like crazy, trying to figure out the puzzle. Have already occurred to me that this would be the stupidest of my adventures. Not be able to leave because of his clasp ... But finally opened! So beware of the future (although it's probably just me I'm so niepełnosprytna): motorcycle security checks before you try them on the go;) Amen!

We hide from Honda before the rain a student residence. Heavy rain caught us just before leaving ...
