We have been in Berlin for only a day and already have lots of stories (some of which we remember). After settling into our gigantic hostel (has 900 or so beds) we decided to take it easy for a little...until we realized we didn't come on this trip to take it easy. As we're walking down the stairs to figure out what to do an Aussie tracks us down and invites us along for a pub crawl....bad idea. we definately started taking shots with the other members of our group right in the lobby and proceeded to get fed vodka on the 2 trains and short walk to the first pub. Somewhere in the midst of the 2nd and 3rd pub/club we both decided to head to the restroom, only to find the group dissappeared in the night. After searching up and down the streets of Berlin we realized we were lost and decided to go home. Probably a good thing considering how we started so early. On the bright side, we did pepper our conversation with bits of German tha we've picked up a long the way and somehow developed a irsh/australian/scottish muddle of an accent (i like to think of it as our alter egos) We decided when woke up this morning that we had to do the pub crawl again tonight to see how it should have ended...wish us luck.
