Eastern Germany Roadtrip

Sorry for the lack of posts...we've been out Adventuring!!!  Our latest excursion took us on a week long road trip through Czech Republic and Germany.  We borrowed Johannes' brothers' new roomy car (Thanks Engelbert!) and hit the road, enroute to visit Katharina in Berlin.  On the way we stopped in Brno, Prague and Dresden before reaching Germany's capital.  We spent a long weekend crashing at Kathi's flat while seeing the sights in Berlin, took a daytrip across the border into Poland and finally headed back to Austria via the beautiful city of Bamberg, Germany.  We saw a ton of great sights, enjoyed visiting with J's sister and naturally took a TON of pictures.   Enjoy just a sampling below :)
