To liven things up for Berlin subway travelers, Volkswagen temporarily installed a bright red plastic slide in the station as an alternative to the escalator and labeled it "Fast Lane."

PROPELLER ISLAND HOTEL

Ever wonder what it would be like to sleep in a coffin, a mirrorred room, a topsy-turvy room or a prison cell?  Then you might want to visit the Propeller Island in Berlin, Germany.  It is an amuzement park of amazing themed rooms that are works of art in themselves.   Each room has a different theme and they range from the beautiful to the bizarre.
