The first city trip of 2012 isn’t started yet but the next one is already planned. The planning started a couple of months ago during a FaceTime conversation when Yves and Joke told us they were planning a trip to Nürnberg in April 2012. Off course we are delighted by the 2 of them visiting us but they wanted to see more of Germany. We discussed a lot of options and then we told Berlin was on a driving distance of less than 450 kilometers from our home (4 hours driving).

So plans were made and last weekend Yves and Sander talked over FaceTime since bookings.com has some specials for April online. Yves and Joke booked a hotel in Nürnberg with a room-rate from less 40€ a night. And Yves is lucky since the Frühlingsfest is there during there stay in Nürnberg which means party and beer!

And for Berlin we’ve booked the Hotel am Zoo which is located on the Kurfüstendamm which is the most famous shopping street of the former West-Berlin. This is very close to the hotel where we slept last year and the location is perfect for a short trip and that with a room-rate from 60€ a night.

What we do in Berlin is up to Yves and Joke! The only things Danielle wants to do is shopping in the KaDeWe and getting some Dunkin’ Donuts! We are looking forward to this week already!
