We've taken Berlin!

Yes we have made it, but not yet taken it! but hey its the weekend and thats to come. Gonna try and find us some dirty German techno and get all mashy until the early hours.

After picking up heater parts from Mr Schmidt at the Garage in Brhul, thanks Mr Schmidt, we continued on our journey, however we should really have learnt some German; thankfully the instruction manual has some pictures!

The journey down was one of motor ways and then lovely country side. However a couple of technical hitches. The newly added fuel filters both blocked, so replaced all fuel filters apart from one which we are getting today. Getting used to road side and car park repairs! Struggling to find gears yesterday but adjusted clutch and all seems fine now. Thank god for that manual!

What can we tell you about 500 km of German countryside? Pretty flat, but lots of wind turbines everywhere. Although, there's also more industry and power stations as well! The graffiti is amazing here and there are lots of bicycles.


When we got to Berlin, we didn't know where their low emission zone started so we parked up in a lovely tree lined street in Babelsberg, Potsdam. We got the tram in today and are currently in an internet cafe.

Off to Pakistan and Indian embassies today for visas, wish us luck but should all be ok.

We'll sign off now, but should be back soon xx
