Well today was my first day of classes and I like the school so far. Getting to school for the first time was an interesting experience since I've never had much experience with public transit but I now have to learn four different systems to get around the city! There is the U-Bahn and the S-Bahn, which are both train systems, the tram system, and the city buses. Speaking of which, I was riding the S-Bahn back to my host family when I saw one of the stops was "Brandenburger Tor." I got off impulsively because I've been wanting to see the Brandenburg Gate for years and I had no idea it'd be so easy to find. I walked out of the station and as I came up the steps, there it was. I just stopped short and stared. I couldn't believe I was actually looking at it!
This isn't the greatest picture because I wasn't prepared to make the stop so I just took it with my phone, but it still looks amazing! I will have some more pictures up later, after I revisit the Plaza with my camera!
That's really all that's happened today, but the day's not over yet! I'll check back in tonight or tomorrow. :)
