Saturday we decided to go to Potsdam, which is just to the West of Berlin. It's a beautiful town, but the main sight to see is the Sans Souci (no worries) palace. Mike and I coudn't help but sing "don't worry be happy" while we were there. But we started at a nice garden near the train station, and took a walk through town on our way to the palace. Brandon was excited that there was Brandenburg Street and Brandenburg gate, which both had his name in them. He also likes the Brandenburg gate in Berlin.
Next stop was the garden surrounding the palace -- there are actually several palaces on the grounds, but we only went into Sans Souci.
It was another long day of walking, but well worth it. The grounds and palaces were all amazing, although not quite as spectactular as Versailles, which was the model. However, the grounds were certainly nearly as large as the area surrounding Versailles.
