After a very full day of sightseeing in Berlin, we decided to make one last stop. We took the train to Tiergarten at dusk and set out to find Cafe am Neuen See, a popular beer garden in the park. We soon learned that Cafe am Neuen See is really secluded, especially if you're on foot. After a couple wrong turns, we made our way along the interior wall of the zoo. We were treated to free views of llamas and birds on display in the park. We soon found Cafe am Neuen See and sat along the lake among the trees and had a well earned beer and soft pretzel. I wish I could say the food was worth the trek into the park -- it wasn't, but the garden setting was a nice way to end the day. The sun had set by the time we were done and we soon realized that we needed to find our way...on foot...back out of the park...in the dark. Tiergarten was reasonably well lit but fairly deserted. The only people we saw were a couple slightly shady guys sitting on a bench and one (very) provocatively dressed woman. Having come full circle, we ended our adventure for the day back at the hotel for some well deserved rest before taking the train to Prague the next day.
