Tourism: Teddy does Berlin

I love this story from Hamburg!

Thanks to an enterprising company called Teddy Tours Berlin, you can now send your teddy bear to the German capital, where a pair of "bearologists" will take your teddy to see all the famous sights. Afterwards they will send teddy back to you in a parcel full of souvenirs and snapshots.

You can choose from a variety of services ranging from 25 dollars to about 150 dollars for the "deluxe teddy tour."

Sites include the Brandenburg Gate, the Berlin Olympic Stadium, the glittering Kurfuerstendamm shopping district, the Reichstag parliament building, and remnants of the Berlin Wall.
