Berlin is a handy 50 minutes flight away from Malmö. Here are some pics from my latest trip, a couple of weeks ago. Enjoy!

Berlin is such a great city. I have only been there in January, so it's great to see it with nicer weather!

Cool City and Pics. i was there for about 30 hours for the world cup. what are those blocks by the sony center? couldnt figure it out. and i noticed those golden fists in a few pics. is that a taggers name or is it someting else?

That's the Holocaust Memorial.

I love that you, like me, love Berlin. I've never flown there though, since it's a less than two hours drive from the ferry in Rostock!
One of the greatest cities of the world, without a doubt.

Anyone who, for some obscure reason haven't been there yet should move their asses...

:tup:

Where are all the people and the DJ trucks!? :)

Well, Berlin from the Olga angle. Entertaining and enjoyable as always. Beautiful pics. But you've gotten me curious. What the heck is Power Aging? I think I need to know (it might help :D )

I couldn’t have said that any better. :) I was in Berlin couple of weeks ago and it didn’t even come to my mind to shoot the Holocaust memorial from this angle:

Great pics Olga, once again.

I don’t know why but that picture somehow reminded me of these towers:

Yeah, you have to get up there, it's really cool. You have to walk all the way up in narrow stairs covered with graffiti. Not to recommend if you have claustrophobia.

You can always trust a Montreal resident to be a good judge of graffiti. Berlin is one of those urban art meccas and the city just seems to thrive on the bits of spraypaint and stencils.

For us too!!
We stayed in Hotel Bogota in the Schlütterstrasse. Lovely area, reminded me somehow of Paris.

Here's a little map with the location of our hotel:
