Travel Diary: Day 3 in Berlin
For our third day in Berlin Jeff and I were determined to enjoy as much of the day as possible like locals might enjoy their Saturday: a stroll through a local market, brunch in a cafe, a wander through an art gallery, a walk in the park and then drinks at a bar away from the … Continue reading
