As explained to me by a friend named Chris, "schickey-mickey" what anything that was over-rated, really hyped up but had no true substance to it. He used the radio tower with the restaurant inside for an example. He said look but don't pay to go in, its a rip-off. "Schicky" was rather like suave or chic, and "Mickey" stood for Mickey Mouse, totally over-rated and hyped, thus you have things, people, places or attitudes that were "Schicky-Micky", looks good on the outside but really no fun at all. You may or may not hear something use this term while in Berlin, or maybe its only something Berliners explain to visitors who THEN say it and look really like the visitors they are.
Take some great pics of the surrounding city. Stay as long as you can endure the slow spinning. Leave a Comment
