Friday we started at Treptower park. It had a lot of flowers, and a river with lots of passenger boats. I got my picture next to a jaguar statue. Then we went to the victory tower. To get there we went through a tunnel. It had a movement-detected light so you could dance in front of it and make shapes with your hands. The tower was very tall. It took 285 steps to get up. We could see the Brandenburg gate from the top. It was rainy but after we got down it was sunny again. Last we saw the Gedächtniskirche. It was bombed and only the middle survived. My sister and I lit candles to represent prayer for peace. Outside the church we jumped from circle to circle and pretended that the rest was lava. At the eiscafe we ordered ice cream like a bee - Biene Maja (pronounced Maya). At the fountain by the church I took some underwater pictures.
Saturday we went to Wittenberg. It's important because Martin Luther nailed 95 theses to change the Catholic church. We got to see Martin Luther's house and what it looked like when he was there. We went to church in the town church and sang his most famous hymn "A Mighty Fortress is Our God."
