At
3pm two tour buses pulled up in
front of the conference venue, the Steigenberger
Hotel Am Kanzleramt, to whisk
attendees away on the first leg of
the excursion, a one hour narrated
sightseeing trip that provided a
close up look at some of Berlin's
most famous attractions.

I was delighted to see longtime
friend Sean Stafford (VP,
Bounce.io) take a seat next to us as
the tour bus pulled away from the
show hotel at the start of the
Sunday afternoon sight seeing tour
around Berlin.

After an hour touring Berlin by bus
attendees boarded a river boat
for the next hour to see what the
lively German capital looks like
from a different vantage point.
After the Spree River tour,
they returned to the buses for a
final hour visiting additional sites
around the city. Standing at center

Europe Founder Dietmar Stefitz.

After today's bus/boat tour those in
Berlin for Domaining
Europe had the evening free to
enjoy the city's many attractions. Verisign
and GoDaddy hosted one group
at a dinner held at the highly
regarded Paris-Moskau Restaurant
near the conference hotel.
The
first business day at Domaining
Europe will get underway at 8:45am
Monday (Berlin time). You can
see the full
agenda here. The show
will conclude with a second business
day (including a 6pm domain auction)
on Tuesday. In my next post from
Berlin I will have all of the Monday
photos and highlights for you in
this column.
