| Every October for 12 nights, the famous landmarks in Berlin are lit up and projected on. It was really cool to see Hotel Adlon look like it was transforming and the Berliner Dom look like it was painted. I wish these photos could portray what our eyes really saw, because it was gorgeous! Fun little Friday night outing. |
 |
| It's crazy that just a train ride away we can go to a totally foreign country where neither of us could understand a word. I loved it! |
 |
| Charles Bridge |
 |
| Jewish Cemetery area |
 |
| John Lennon Wall |
 |
| Street Market in the middle of Prague |
 |
| There were so many little alley ways and cafes. I just wanted to get lost in the beauty of it all. |
 |
| Old Town Square |
 |
| St. Vitus Cathedral at Prague Castle |
 |
| Wenceslas Square The girls are obsessed with souvenir shops. There were about a thousand of them, all with about the same things, but they still wanted to stop and check out each one. Love these girls! |
 |
| The food and treats were delicious! |
 |
| Ruka has officially learned how to say "cheese" for the camera. |
 |
| Love Locks in Prague. |
 |
| Cute little hidden park we found in the middle of Prague. (Yes, Mason should model) |
 |
Yesterday it was a rainy day, so did a few indoor things that the kids (and Mason and I) wanted to see. |
| We went to the cutest little candy shop Bon Bon Macherei where we got to see the candy being made by hand. It was as tasty as it was fascinating! |
 |
| Since it was a rainy day, we decided to check out the Berlin Natural History Museum. It was a lot bigger than I expected it to be. Everything was so beautifully displayed that I didn't mind all the taxidermy and there was A LOT of it. |
 |
| I love that this place entertained all three of my kids! It was so cute seeing Ruka point at everything and being so excited. We also went to the Galleria (like a Nordstroms) where they had the famous Steiff Stuffed Animals, but no pictures or purchases were made, but it was cool to see. |
The girls have been out of school for autumn/oktober vacation, so last Wednesday (the official German Independence Day) we did some more exploring and checked out some old churches, Alexanderplatz, and once again the Zoo. |
| The ornate details in the Berliner Kirchen was crazy amazing! |
 |
| Everything from the outside of the church to the pulpit was amazingly beautiful. I couldn't imagine going to church there every sunday. |
 |
| I love Alexaderplatz, it almost feels surreal being there a mist all the beautiful architecture. I just want to sit and eat at all the little cafes which are at every corner. |
 |
| Another beautiful church we stopped by to pay our respects. Peace! |
 |
| The Berlin Zoo has this huge playground that is prefect for the kids to get out their extra energy before we head home. We even seem to spot a new animal that we haven't seen before, like an American Bald Eagle…Really?! Is it legal to have these captive? Either way, it was gorgeous to see up close and in person. |
 |
| I'm really bad at uploading these pictures in order, but we started the day by checking out this cute little festival at Alexander Platz to partake in their delicious waffles, Brats, and treats. I've gotta learn to take better pictures, these just don't do these places justice. |
 |
| The girls in front of the San Souci |
 |
| San Souci Garden was so big and so beautiful! |
 |
| My favorite part of the San Souci was this historical windmill |
 |
| I love all the tree lined trails and roads |
 |
| Out for a walk |
 |
| Emi found her future car. |
 |
| The amazing Olympic stadium |
