Berlin, MD is a great town for many reasons.  It’s hard to argue with any town whose name was derived from the mispronunciation of one of its original buildings, a tavern called The Burley Inn.  As you all know I’m quite guilty of spelling errors, and as such, I feel as though I have to forgive people for pronunciation errors, which are like the more popular cousins of spelling errors.  

Berlin today features a downtown area that has been restored lovingly by the community and today features a very pleasant and welcoming feel.   The town has an ice cream shop, a boot-maker, and antique shops as well.  It’s just 7 miles from Ocean City, and well worth the trip if you want to go somewhere to have a relaxing break or spend a night away from “all the hustle and bustle.”
