Berlin day 3

Not well, want to go to bed, thus blog brief.

This morning we went by train to Potsdam and went on a hop on hop off bus trip of the town  and the sites.  The town was interesting,  particularly for its 18th century architecture, or rather it's rebuilt 18th century architects.  Not much was left after 1945. We got off  at schloss Cecilia  something . It was the location of the potsdam conference that divided up some of Europe in 1945. I sat on the ground in the shade taking photos of all the boats that went past, ranging from huge tour boats to an overweight man on his SUP while the german scholar who is also teaching me about military history,  did a tour of the schloss.
