So slept in again, so not out and about until gone 10. Stopped at the front desk of the hotel and bought one day travel cards for the metro, buses, trams. Our plan was to ride the rails and see what we saw. So off to the Museum area first and bought three day museum tickets (yay – tomorrow, Wednesday, and Thursday – museums!) Joe got lots of photos. Then back to the metro and off to the Olympic Stadium. Got to the stadium on the S-bahn trains, walked around the stadium (more photos) and to the U-bahn and back to the centre. Off to Nordbahnhof and the wall memorial. It’s been left pretty much in situ, with no man’s land and the two bits of the wall. Interesting to see and Joe got more photos. We also saw the information about the Ghost Stations and videos\/photos. Then my sandal broke. So back to the room to find some outdoor shops to replace the sandals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
