Tonight I decided I would take a virtual trip to Germany for half an hour and wondered which thread to read.
I have only been to Berlin once and loved it, apart from the cold (but it was in early Dec) so this thread appealed to me .
WOW , your photos are just superb . Thank you
I hope you get time to post some more in the future

I was just thinking to myself the other day that I haven't seen a new Berlin photo in awhile. What's up, Rikita, did you move?

At this bridge, people like to hang out on summer nights. Maybe someone after some beer decorated it...

That looks like about the level of inspiration of someone completely imbibed.

If imbibed person was a guy, I'm sure he signed it by peeing into the water (canal?) as well.

that's a bit difficult from the bridge i think (though i am sure people are inventive enough)...

I have just got to go to Berlin!! It seems like a city I would enjoy very much.
|
|
|
Post by rikita on May 28, 2013 11:13:28 GMT
yeah i'd say it is a nice place, though of course i am a bit biased... well if/when you come here, i could show you around a bit if you want (not sure if you like meeting people from the internet or not)...

Post by anshjain97 on May 28, 2013 11:23:45 GMT
Oh yeah- not done it so far, but it would be great to meet and get to know more people. Unfortunately, I don't see myself in Berlin soon...

Post by rikita on May 28, 2013 11:44:36 GMT
well, i will probably stay here for the next years or decades...

I finally took the time to do as Lugg and take a virtual tour of Berlin. A beautiful city and certainly on my short list of places to visit. Our dear friend just returned from 3 weeks there visiting some family and he was positively smitten. He keeps telling me how much I would love it. Great thread Rikita. The Berlin tourist bureau should be compensating you for this.

Post by rikita on May 28, 2013 12:15:52 GMT
hehe i will contact them and ask for that then...
btw, the offer of showing visitors around (depending a bit on how much time i have of course) is also for all other potential berlin visitors from anyport...

Yes, everyone I know who has been to Berlin is enthralled, though since it was so heavily damaged during the end of the war, and simply because it is such a large city, it doesn't seem as harmonious as some of the other German cities. They love its dynamism and its quirkiness.

Post by rikita on May 29, 2013 18:50:04 GMT
well, what i like is that every part of berlin seems to have its own atmosphere...

The flags definitely cheer up the building!

Post by rikita on Jun 1, 2013 11:30:27 GMT
well, as a typical german, i am a bit ambivalent about the flags...

I am always so thrilled whenever I manage to capture a lightning strike.

At the main train station, DB is the German train company.
