 Berlin is quite the place to visit. What stood out to me is its unique mix of old and new. From its modern skyscrapers to the relics of generations past, the old vs. new mix certainly made the city stand out to me. This week, in Picture This, a semi-regular series on The Keith King Report, is a picture blog of Berlin. If you're interested in more on this series, you can find the others in the series here.
They’re mysterious to those who’ve never been in one, yet unforgettable to anyone who has. Before I was lucky enough to visit an airport lounge, I’d walk by those doors that say “Admirals Club” or “Sky Club” slowly, just so I could maybe get a peak inside, wondering what it was like.
Still, they’re unheralded, often forgotten parts of every airport (certainly by the majority of people who travel). If you fly on a regular basis, a lounge can potentially save you, not only your sanity, but a ton of cash. If you don’t fly a lot, buying a day pass may turn your trip to the airport into something you look forward to, rather than a chore. 
It’s true. Taking trains around Europe is almost like a right of passage. ‘Everyone’ does it, it’s fun, unique, and can get you pretty much anywhere. A Eurail Pass also allows you to play loose and fast with your plans. Want to stay an extra day in a particular city? Not a problem. The pass will still be good the next day. There is a lot of good to say about a rail pass when touring Europe.
But (and this is a big one) they can be very expensive. A three country Eurail Pass that’s good for five travel days over the span of two months will set you back at least $406. If you break that down by travel days, it comes out to just over $81 per day. Not bad, but you could do better.  About a month ago I told you how to spend a weekend getaway in Lucerne. This week, I'm gonna expand on that post with Picture This, a semi-regular series on The Keith King Report where I show you some of the best pictures I take during my trips. You can find the first of the series here.
First, I don’t know if there’s a country that is more breathtaking than Switzerland. The country is as beautiful as it is expensive. And Lucerne is no exception.
I would describe Lucerne as a fairly compact city with a lake on one side, and mountains around all other sides. If nothing else, it’s certainly a walkable area. But what can you do to occupy your time there during a weekend getaway and not break the bank? Here’s your answer: Take a walk around the city’s Old Town 
I admit, Munich was not how I imagined it would be. And that’s not a bad thing. I originally thought it was going to be less modern than it was. But it’s about as modern a city as there is in the world. It’s also got a historic district and the two blend together very nicely.
The German city is in Bavaria (south eastern part of Germany) and is home to roughly 1.5 million people. With its size, there’s no shortage of options at your disposal during a visit. But what should you do if you’re planning to hit it and then quit it after a few days? Here’s your list: Hofbrauhaus  Just last week I told you how to spend a weekend getaway in Prague.
This week, I'm gonna expand on that post with Picture This, a semi-regular series on The Keith King Report where I show you some of the best pictures I take during my trips. You can find the first of the series, Picture This: Amsterdam, here. The following photos are from Prague. 
Prague is a city with an extensive history. As an example, one of the main tourist attractions is the Charles Bridge, which was built in 1402. Let me repeat that date: 1402. That’s before the United States was even a thought. Heck, that was a full 90 years before Christopher Columbus sailed the ocean blue.
And that’s just the beginning. It’s also home to the largest castle in the world, a town square that’s everything a European town square should be, and an astronomical clock installed in 1401 that still works today. There’s obviously plenty to do in Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic. Here are some of the activities I would highly recommend during a short visit:  Last week I told you all about how you can spend three to four days in Amsterdam. You can visit that post here. This week, I thought I'd post some of the best pictures I took with my iPhone of the city.
