2013.07.29 – Berlin \u2013 Dresden (Germany)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We woke up before 9am this morning in order to have breakfast and catch our 12:46pm train to Dresden. We had coffee and pastries at a nearby cafe. The sky was covered this morning and a light rain was falling. We took advantage of our Eurail pass to get from our hotel to the Central train station. At the station, we noticed a train departure for Dresden on track 11 at 11:42 but we also noted another departure screen suggesting that our departure was from track 3 at 11:46. At the last moment, we heard an announcement indicating that the Dresden train was departing from track 11. With only 2 minutes left, we made a crazy dash from track 3 to track 11 \u2013 two floors away. We barely made it on board. We never knew Jenny could run this fast while towing a large suitcase behind her. We arrived at the Dresden train station, one hour and half later on. We had a short walk to our Ibis Lilliben hotel \u2013 the 3rd Ibis Hotel tower along our walkway. Jenny and Victoria were excited to see all the shopping stores around our hotel. While enjoying some tasty sausages on a bun, we agreed to split up again for a few hours. The laddies were eager to do some shopping while I rented a bicycle to explore the streets of Dresden for an hour. With the shopping crave satisfied, we headed out for supper at a popular German restaurant. The food was different and the service was slow but nonetheless we enjoyed our visit. When time came to leave this underground restaurant, we realized that the rain was pouring down. After encouraging Jenny, we ventured out in the rain and walked swiftly back to our hotel. We were disappointed that our hotel did not offer any free WiFi from our room.<\/p>\n\n\n
