We leave Berlin in the afternoon, traveling by bus to Dresden. We are assigned to the Camel Room at our hostel in the Neustadt. The room pales in comparison to our previous accommodations.
The Camel Room
For dinner we choose a GDR style pub. The food is amazing and we wonder why we are literally the only people in the restaurant. Other tourists arrive later.
A GDR meal
We walk toward the Old Town and come across a tiki bar situated on the river. We sip their signature sangria while others play beach volleyball nearby. The bartender recommends a discothek and calls a car to take us there. We are surprised when a man in an Audi arrives to pick us up.
Tiki bar on the Elbe
The discothek is nearly empty on a Wednesday night but we do our best to drink and dance with abandon. It is very late when we arrive at the hostel but sleep is nearly impossible. The street noise outside the window is ridiculous, with loud music and screaming pub patrons. When the crowds finally leave, the street cleaner arrives and I listen to the noise of the motor as it blends with the music.
