Berlin: Two Days Were Definitely Not Enough


Prenzlauer Berg

Cafe Glücklich am Park
"Happy at the Park"
An adorable cafe with non-matching old
tables, chairs and coffee cups.
And they had Cookies and Cream ice cream,
a definite bonus.
Wish I had taken more pictures here.


Focacceria
The perfect place for an afternoon snack.

Tacheles


Tacheles is a very unique art center
in an old, run-down building
that was occupied by squatters after World War II.


Artists set up their galleries in various rooms
and one can just wander through
as one trudges from floor to floor.


Outside there is a chill area with hippie flair,
complete with small cafes and bars,
sand beneath your feet
and an old VW bus.
On some days, the large letters are moved around
to spell out messages,
unfortunately not today.

"Liebe"
All you need is love...
At the Kulturbrauerei

The definition of overkill

Berlin Hauptbahnhof
"The most modern train station in the world"
And they have a dinosaur!

Evening in Berlin
