Germany has been so relaxing. Berlin is such a chill town and I wouldn't have necessarily expected that, especially because a lot of people talk about the buzz of it. But I find it to be very laid back. Today a friend and I went to explore more of Kreuzberg, a neighborhood known for eclecticism, Turkish immigration, markets, artists, and more. It was nice and we found this awesome playground which is a pretty common occurence here in Berlin.

We also found a petting zoo.

Anywho, yesterday...I think it was yesterday? Went to all the museums I wanted to go to and explored some more.

 Just chilling by the river by the Berliner Dom. This entire area is filled with museums and is on the river and nearby I ate a wrap, contemplated the museum art, and rested.

 Side of the Berliner Dom with more exquisite details.

 One of (my) preferred paintings in the Alles Neue Art Galerie. Colors are nice and it looks very Germany.

 Mummies! The entire basement of this museum was awesome. I pretended I was "Bones" and deciphering the skulls and mummies and codes to learn more about their lifestyles. It was all darkly lit down there and had tons of ancient Egyptian materials.

 German flag flying high near Humboldt University. (Einstein!)

 "Flowers are so gay."  Note the 3D flower attached to the graffiti, this was besides the children's playground in Kreuzberg. 

 This is the coffee the most wonderful hostel owner in the world made me!!!
