Berlin and Kiara

Yesterday we walked along a painted wall. I took lots of pictures and pretended I was part of the wall. The wall divided East Germany from West Germany in Berlin. Mama said the Russians wanted to keep them separate. Then we walked along a green space with a pond with fountains and found a wooden playground to play the lava game on.

Then we got on a bus to meet Kiara. Kiara couldn't hold her excitement and was jumping up and down when we got off the bus. We played hunters and jaguars on the way to the play area in the park. When it came time to come home Kiara and I wanted to stay together so we stopped at every single little play area, even the small play toys and didn't want to leave unless we went to Kiara's house. So we ate snack together at the bus stop and Mama told me we can see her later.

Today we went to Rathenow. We got to ride a double-decker train there and back. We went to a cemetery to see where Oma's ancestors lived. We didn't find a grave stone with the last name on it, but we did find the church they would have worshiped in. We went up the tower and saw the bell. It was really really really high and we could see lots of towns. We tried to see the optik park but it was closed because the bad weather from a few days ago damaged things.

Instead we came back to Berlin and saw the Olympic Stadium. It was boring except for watching the pool which was awesome because we saw divers and one went to a high platform really high up. If I went up there I would just fall backwards off of it!
