I try posting from esteem ...
Last night of a short trip to Berlin - first time I set foot here since May 1989 (when I landed in Berlin - Ost and did a short organized visit of a few hours of which I kept almost no memories ...)
Marienkirche and the famous TV tower behind. First picture when stepping put of the bus from Tegel airport.
Berliner Rathaus - nearby. Weather was a bit grey.
Bernauer Straße on the demarcation line between East and West Berlin. A kind of wall memorial is visible as is the no-man's land
Menu of the oldest restaurant in Berlin "Zur letzten Instanz", established 1621. Recommended
Picture from one of the bridges linking Fischerinsel with the city
Berlin by night from the upper floor bar of a hotel.
Interesting city, young, smart, dynamic. The legacy is visible - a bit grey, in need of sprucing up.
Was here mostly with business, not as a tourist and with grey, moist, cold weather. Not the best period of the year (early March). Among the people I had the privilege to meet during this trip was @smcaterpillar, the author of the @trufflepig.
Definitely a city to come back to during summer for a longer stay.
In case you wonder - all the pictures are originals taken with my now quite old Samsung Galaxy Note 4.
