One day in DDR

Today we went to the DDR museum which was very interesting because we saw how people lived in the DDR. We saw the car they used at that time the “Trabi” which weighs 615kg. The Trabi is so light because it is build out of plastic because DDR didn’t want to import from the West.

The museum had also an imitation of a DDR living room. Our tour guide said that people married really early so they could get an apartment or flat. This reminded me on what my parents said about how it was in Czechoslovakia. They married really young which made it able for them to buy an apartment.

After the museum tour we made a boat ride on the River Spree which was really beautiful. The sun started to shine and we sailed on the Spree River away. We went around the museum island which made it even prettier because all the old looking building was around us. I got a Cappuccino which I really enjoyed in the sun and in my porcelain cup. After that we went on a shopping trip where we spent a lot of money  but yea European cloths is just the best .
