Berlin Take 4...

I've been at it again!

3 Days in Deutschland were just what I needed after a rather busy Christmas... Here's what I got up to...

(See my other Berlin posts herehere, and here!)


 "RUG-STAR!"

 An amazing new bike shop that's opened up in Mitte on Rosa-Luxembourg Strasse...

 Interflug in the DDR museum... Right up my street!

 Get off my lawn!!

I found this bizarre shop near Alexanderplatz selling old DDR bric-a-brac... I REALLY wanted the 'Exquisit' carrier bag (Exquisit was the old DDR shop selling high-end western products to try and generate some foreign currency for the government...) but the store was closed! :(

What a happy brand...

I saw this in Nottingham today on my lunch break and it made me smile... The shutter on the front of the shop has been broken for a few days now and I just thought it was nice of them to make such a happy sign...
