A bit of Window Shopping:-
 |
The Louis Vuiton windows on Friedrichstrasse.
The same can be seen in Paris and London as well. I love the concept and the colours! |
 |
Hermes Ku'Dam were having a sale exhibition
of "Petit H..... " |
 |
| Hmm.....not sure about this..... |
 |
| .....to be honest I was not impressed and I thought it was a lot of money for what are really just scraps of materials! Miaow! |
The Berlin Sights:-
 |
The line marks where the Berlin Wall
once stood - this was at Postdamer Platz. Imagine not being able to get to the other side - incredible how times change. |
 |
| A plaque indicating what the line in the road is! |
 |
| The British Embassy. |
 |
Unter den Linden is a bit of building site
at the moment! |
 |
The I M Pie designed new wing of the
Deustches Historisches Musuem (The German History Museum) |
 |
I went to see this exhibition - it was fabulous
not too big and not too small, perfect! |
 |
| The museum site. |
 |
No photos were allowed but I sneaked this one!
The dress in the middle has butterflies printed on the material - PP, I took this for you! |
 |
The lovely covered courtyard of the museum
which links the old and new buildings. |
 |
| A cute fountain with ducks near our hotel. |
 |
Berlin has loads of Horse Chestnut trees
and they were all in bloom while I was there. |
 |
A close up of the flowers - I was amazed just
how beautiful they are. |
The Kitsch:-
 |
This balcony amused me with its array of
plastic animals and gnomes! Must have taken someone ages to collect and arrange. |
 |
| And the window next to the balcony cute! |
Hope you enjoyed my little whizz around Berlin!
I've only been to Berlin once, but I loved it! I seem to remember having beers that were either green or red coloured and looked like medicine! Also some rather horrid curry sauce and chips - I think your trip was a bit more elegant than mine! The ballet looks terrific and thanks so much for the vicarious window shop! xxx
ReplyDeleteHi Mrs Exeter - yes they do have the red and green beers - can't think of the name right now but I've seen it at the theatre. I've never had the curry wurst - not too sure about it LOL! Have a great Jubilee weekend! SAx
ReplyDeleteThe beer is called "Berliner Weisse mit Schuss"...this is beer with a little bit of rasberry or "Waldmeister" sirup (woodruff). I dont like it...but iit looks nice.
ReplyDeleteThanks G-P-O that's that stuff! SA:-))
