Despite last nights late dinner everyone was up & ready for our 6:00am departure for Dresden Airport. After saying farewell they traveled back to the USA via Frankfurt.
For a small group of our travelers the adventure continued though - with eight continuing onward to Berlin later in the morning.
On the way to Germany's capital we stopped in Potsdam, once the royal retreat of Prussia's kings & thus home to a collection of beautiful palaces. We took a private tour of Frederick the Great's Sanssouci with our guide Petra, including walking the gardens.
After lunch we continued to Berlin, via the infamous Gleinike Bridge ('Bridge of Spies').
Following check-in at our 'Wall Street' themed hotel we took an evening stroll to the nearby Nikolaiviertel (Nicholas Quarter) for dinner in a typical Berlin pub - complete with huge portions of pork knuckle!
