Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
(Berlin, not Ireland)
German riot police at the anti G20 demonstrations in Berlin. I asked them if I could take their picture just to be on the safe side
*The photo title is a song title and not my feelings towards the police.
Maximo Park Graffiti
“I’ll do graffiti if you sing to me in French, What are you doing here if romance isn’t dead”
Mind your mouth as you walk with me,Take care ooh as you cross the street”
I saw this park bench when walking through a park in Berlin and Maximo Park just popped into my head. I always wondered what’s correct grammatically; does one ‘do’ graffiti?
Post title is the name of a British Rock Band Maximo Park and a song title of theirs ‘Graffiti’.
Taken on Berlin’s U Bahn. I was hoping that nobody would walk around the corner or from behind as it would ruin the picture…and I could be mugged.
These remind me of the film/movie Jacob’s Ladder.
At the beginning of the 19th century, the Alexanderplatz was one of the busiest squares in Berlin. he TV tower, known as the Fernsehturm or the Tele-spargel (toothpick) is one of the largest structures in Europe. The total length to the top of the spire is 365m or 1197 ft. It was built in 1969 by a team of architects with the help of Swedish experts. It contains a concrete shaft, a steel-cladded metal sphere and a TV antenna. The sphere contains a revolving restaurant (Telecafé) at 207m and a viewing platform at a height of 203m.
One car costs over £1 million and the other one probably a million years old!
