Day 22: new years eve

Rise and shine at 5 am. Lucky we have Tom with us because i struggle every time i have to get crush into the overhead luggage but he swung it up as though it were full of feathers. We played tunes and sang along and slept until we arrived in Berlin. Yay. Tom is maybe not a very good navigator for we arced many circles before finding the hostel that was actually a five minute walk from the station. Lunch was the next item on the agenda and we stumbled across a delicious Mexican place for epic burritos. Then it was time to meet Jess and Leah and Annabelle woo hoo. We were very loud and excited for a long time as expected from a group of six girls. So the shopping expedition was fun. 5 bottles of vodka and snacks and mixers: done. Then it was get ready time, card game/drinking game time and downstairs to meet people time. The bar up on the roof of the hostel is where everyone congregated to watch the fireworks. They lasted forever and they came from ever direction. It's not illegal to make your own fireworks so people were setting them off on the rooftop bar too. They were flying way too close to our faces but they were brilliant. When the rooftop bar shut we walked to a club. Unfortunately the place was full of Aussies but it was fun. We danced the night away until the early hours of the morning. Leah was a super sleuth. She sneaked in to the VIP lounge and took half a bottle of vodka. And when that ran out she did it again but this time got caught and was told to leave the VIP section (he still managed to have a bottle of vodka in her grasp though). After the fourth steal  she was kicked out. But super sleuthy Leah sneaked back in and managed to steal a final fifth bottle of vodka. For these efforts Leah bassett is awarded the sleuth award in the honor of vodka.
