Running short of time to catch the bus, then had trouble sorting out the correct bus to catch, finished off by mistakenly booking second class (instead of first) and having to sit in the train corridor for the hour and a half trip to Berlin.
However got better after that with an 8th floor hotel room overlooking the city, a fascinating few hours in the 'Neue Museum' and an amazing meal in an Italian restaurant just round the corner from the hotel.
We saw the bust of Nefertiti (3300 years old) in the museum which was pretty special but the building itself was amazing. Pretty much destroyed in WWII, it was abandoned until 1980 and reopened in 2009. The architect redesigned it such that all the destruction could still be seen and the original architecture.
