      Eurovision final viewing in Potsdam

      Potsdam May 17, 2013 at 7:42 AM

      Hi all,

      I'd appreciate any advice on where to watch the final of the Eurovision song contest tomorrow evening (18th May). Are there any places (eg. cafe, sports bar, restaurant) in Potsdam which will be showing this event? We are visiting Potsdam this weekend and would love to get a glimpse of this year's final but the accommodation we'll be staying at doesn't have a TV... Any advice would be much appreciated!

      Cheers,
      Tania

      Paris->Milan->Venice (Train)
      Venice - 2 days??
      Venice - > Rome (Train)
      Rome- 3 days?

      I have to go back to Berlin for the return flight. But I still have 1 day left. What is the better option to cover that day, drive from Rome to Geneva (Swiss) for scenic alps view and fly from Geneva to Berlin? Is Geneva better or Zurich? and Rome and Venice in 5 days? Is that doable? Can someone suggest me ?

      When is the best time to go to avoid craziness, if possible :)
      What should I book in addition to hotel??
      What are the so famous "tends"?
      How much money should I expect to use? Mid range drinker
      I've heard it gets too expensive, would it be worth to go after the festival to avoid that?

      Thank you so much for any extra info you can provide!!!!

      As far as I see its not possible which is really inconvinient.

      OK I may ask my friend to buy it for me with a credit card, but then they have another stupid rule:
      I must identify myself on the train with a credit card along with my ticket???
      (they require to specify a credit card number for identification during the online purchasing process)

      May I then at least use my own DEBIT card number for identification? Or does it also have to be a credit card?
