Two Days in Berlin

Two Days in Berlin
Good-bye Copenhagen
It's a very short flight from Copenhagen to Berlin. Just enough time to eat a rocks and dirt hippie stick granola bar and have a beer
Hello, Berlin
The first thing I did was get a McBeer with Ronald. So sick. Two Euros for a beer from McDonalds. It's cheap to hang out here compared to Copenhagen
I don't think Ronald would approve of this weird McPooper
What kind of whip is that?
Can you tell I like McDonalds? This is the Happy Meal selection
Another strange Euro pooper
That thing is my landmark for when I get super lost in the city
We're staying in super tight quarters in some random hostel we found. The place is packed
The Six Pack is going to have to squeeze into this for sleeping arrangements? Whoa
There are tons of great bands that come through here. We just missed Against Me! the other night. We found out Wu Tang is doing a show tonight. Protect ya neck. See you there
They got different Monopoly money here
I saw at least 30 beer and Pepsi mixers get poured here. That's an odd one. The bartender says drunk people like something sweet in their beer
Pissing in the streets is one of your rights here
Rolling your own cigarettes is a popular thing out here. P-Stone even lights one up every now and then
Yes, Dirty Bird is still rolling with us
Dirty Bird makes friends with everyone like Schaefer does
Weirdest meat I've ever eaten. Hope that was meat
See the dirty fingers? All they give you with a meal here is a fork and a napkin so you have to caveman it with your left hand to eat
Dirty Bird is down with the random Euros
It's tight quarters in the pissers
I took photos of street signs on a solo mission I went on to make sure I wouldn't get lost. It didn't work. Three hours of pushing and wandering around later, I met back up with the Six Pack
They're all on the way to our hostel
They got their own version of the Jersey barrier here
Even the newer buildings out here have class and style
Gas station chicken is probably the best meal you can find here in Berlin
What you got on this?
What you got on that? I got nothing because my ankle is still jacked. At least I can push around still
I can't even do a Berlin wall ride and I'm standing right in front of it. Lame
I think I'm making it pretty obvious that I'm a tourist by staring at all the buildings for way too long
Later that night, Schaefer and I had a nice romantic dude dinner at some Italian place down the street
Finally! Some meat and potatos. That's a filet that was huge and only cost 15 Euros. At a place this nice in the States it would be about 30 bucks. I know my filet and this was some quality eats. The stuff on the top sucks, though
Before heading back to the hostel to pile up with six sweaty dirty dudes, we stopped at some strip bar on the way and made some new frieds
