Day 13 Berlin to Hamburg

We left our very nice apartment in Berlin and headed to Hamburg. We spent about three and a half hours traveling and another hour waiting in train stations. Everything went smoothly. Our new apartment meets our needs. The boys actually had a chance to play some soccer outside in the back yard this afternoon - much needed. We had a relaxing afternoon and are gearing up for our tour of Hamburg tomorrow with the mother of one of our exchange students. Our initial impression of Hamburg is that it is a bit gritty. People here are working and studying and otherwise busy. We will see if that first impression bears out.
