Stephanie gets into the storage unit in our hostel roomOh man, I don't even know how to start with Berlin.
It took us about 2.5/3 hours to get to Berlin by train; we made a few changes and it wasn't too bad, although I wish there would have been A/C on that first one because we were dying. When we got there, it was around 8:30 PM, so Dr. G walked us to our hostel, "Three Little Pigs" which ended up being REALLY awesome and super amazing. Man, I've had really good luck with hostels so far, holy cow. Anyway, we had to divvy up the rooms, and so my girls and I took the room for 8 and only ended up with 6 in there due to a few people not coming, so that wasn't so bad. The room had bunkbeds. We basically just kind of threw our stuff in there, threw on some new make-up, and went out ready to hit the town.
Walking around netted us not a lot but we did find this Mexican restaurant, so we went there to eat and grab our first beers of the night. We had originally hoped to find a bar or pub to go to, but our

More shots of the hostel hostel was pretty far away from the bar district, and so even when we asked the helpful hostel staff on their recommendations, it would have been a 6 Euro train ride there and back just to get out there, and we weren't really feeling that. So instead, after dinner, we ventured back out, hit a store, bought beer, and just walked around on the street drinking it. Yay, open bottle laws!
(Ashley made a screwdriver right outside the store and walked around drinking that instead.)
We walked a LONG TIME and found some cool stuff, but it was like 11-something or midnight, and we were just wandering around Berlin, which was cool but eventually Ashley, Hilary and I got tired, so we decided to head back towards the hostel and get some sleep since we were starting so early the next morning.
(Short entry is short?)
