    What sort of things are there to see and do in Berlin other than the show?     We love historic sites and hiking/outdoor activities.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.   We will be in Frankfurt for the show too.  I really want to hike in the Bavarian Alps and the Black Forest if possible.
    Berlin has loads of history obviously. 
    Do you have some time before Frankfurt/after Berlin? Otherwise the Alps are too far away. The Black Forest is nice but honestly can’t compete with the Alps. If you do have enough time and want some tips, I‘m happy to help!

    I was thinking we would arrive a few days before the show in Frankfurt to do tourist stuff.   Was wondering if we should take the train South or rent a car from Frankfurt.  How best to get to the Alps?

    Either way it’s a five hour trip to Garmisch-Partenkirchen for example. That’s a good place to start. The area above the Königssee is stunning but that’s further away.

    Yeah, I see it is a long way.    I will do some more planning and thinking.  And I'm sure I will be asking more questions.  Thanks so much for your help.  Are you going to both shows?
