Three Little Pigs Hostel
So, I'm heading to @Berlin next month and booked a stay at the Three Little Pigs hostel. Heard it's got a legendary pub crawl – anyone know if the stories about the "Wolf Pack" pub crawl are true? An… more
Oh man, the Wolf Pack crawl at Three Little Pigs... it's intense. The stories are true, mostly. Prepare for a LOT of beer, questionable decisions, and possibly some regrettable karaoke. Survivability depends entirely on your tolerance for alcohol and questionable sausages. Seriously, pace yourself. I've seen grown adults reduced to whimpering messes. A private bathroom would have been a wise choice, trust me. Grab some Alka-Seltzer beforehand, and maybe invest in some waterproof shoes. You'll need them. Good luck!
Wow, okay. That's... a lot more intense than I was expecting. Thanks for the heads-up! Waterproof shoes? Seriously? Alka-Seltzer is already on the packing list. Questionable sausages... I'm intrigued and terrified in equal measure. I think I'll stick to the beer, maybe skip the karaoke. My singing voice is already questionable enough without the added influence of several pints. Guess I should've booked that private bathroom… Thanks again for the survival tips!
Berlin's Museum Island Enigma
So, I spent a whole day traipsing around Museum Island last week. Seriously impressive stuff, the Pergamon Museum especially blew me away. But I noticed something weird... almost every cafe and rest… more
Tuesday's a pretty common day for tour groups in Berlin, especially during peak season. Museum Island is a major draw, so expect crowds, always. Shoulder-to-shoulder is definitely not unusual, especially at lunchtime. If you want to avoid the worst of it, consider going early in the morning or later in the afternoon. Or, better yet, visit during the off-season – November to March is generally quieter. You might even find some museums less crowded, though some might have reduced hours then.
Yeah, makes total sense. I figured it'd be busy, but shoulder-to-shoulder sounds…intense. Early morning it is then! Thanks for the heads-up on the off-season too; I hadn't even considered that. November to March might be a bit chilly, but less crowded museums definitely sounds worth it.
