Day 2: Landed at Paris's Charles deGaul in 1/2 mile, 200 ft visibility. That's pilot talk for bad weather. CDG is really spread out. I had to walk for 30 minutes to get to my connection. Then things started to deteriorate. Now, I was with the European masses. Had to stand at the gate. No empty seats. Went downstairs to a bus to take us to the plane on the tarmac. First Class on this segment was the bulkhead with the center seat blocked off. My lunch came in a plastic box. At Berlin's Tegel airport I found the bus to the city and for 2.3 E I was off to my hotel; Hotel Wall-street.
Found the hotel with minimum difficulty. The numbers on the street don't necessarily follow the rules that most of us are accustomed to.
Now I wanted to lie down but I knew that I would never get up, so I did what any tired child would want to do, I went to the Zoo.
After an hour and a half of looking at the animals, I was so tired I headed back to the hotel and got in bed. No dinner.
