I got back from Germany a few days
ago. Berlin is very interesting. Jimby has added the
photos to show you what I did. Of course, we went to
the Brandenburg Gate, and I saw the Reichstag.
There is a big TV tower in central
Berlin and some beautiful buildings that are art museums.
I hope I do not upset any Jimby's from Germany but I
had heard about The State Library of Berlin (Staatsbibliothek
zu Berlin), so I went to check it out. It's a big, ugly,
modern building with a lot books. I'm not sure what's
so special about it.
I walked around the city and saw all
sorts of interesting things.
I saw some bears in the park. They
weren't in the zoo. They were just in a neighborhood
park. Then I kept seeing shops with bananas in the window.
I decided to check this out in closer detail. One place
had an exhibit called Affentheater, "Monkey Theater."
That's for me! So, I went in and got information.
It turns out that it was a museum exhibit
on the history of the zoo. I also had my photo taken
with two giants who were in a park. The one sitting
down is named Karl Marx. I didn't remember him being
one of the Marx brothers. They say he was an economist
of sorts and not a comedian. He didn't look very funny
to me.
Berlin has a lot of neat things
going: bears, bananas, monkey theater, interesting buildings.
It's fun -- a little dirty -- but fun.
