YUP... I was a Berliner... for a week
Both me and MOTH had a quick R&R in Berlin. I never been to this city so, I booked a 5 days trip without the knowledge of MOTH (man of the house). It was a nice city with so much feelings and I love the history. A trip for a lifetime. A must to adventure and I can guarantee that you will appreciate every minute of your time.

Lile your SSS shots! Happy Easter?
SvaraRaderaLots of bright sunshine and shadows for you on this trip! That would be such an interesting place to visit.
SvaraRaderaSo many intriguing buildings and beautiful statues and lovely shadowy library gate! But most of all I am fascinated by the various remnants and markings on the road of The Wall. Great post!
SvaraRaderaWhat a cool city! The Wall is so important, built to keep people IN instead of keeping enemies out. Let us hope that never reappears (my father was a reporter in 1962 in West Berlin. Glad that part of Cold War history is no more...)
SvaraRaderaThe Trabbi was a terrible car - but makes fabulous ,odern day art!
What fabulous photos and ShadowShots!! I haven't been to Berlin since I was a teenager (in the 60's) so things have changed tremendously!! I was SOOOOoo excited and happy when the wall came down. Now I am happy to see the memorial blocks that represent the decades of the Iron Curtain that separated families and enslaved so many in East Berlin. One should never forget the tyranny of Communism. A good reminder.
SvaraRaderaLoved the photos - what a wonderful visit you had! What a great variety of places and shadows!
SvaraRaderaIt is always so exciting to me to be able to visit far away places through the lens of blogging friends! Your photos are wonderful.
SvaraRaderaSo nice visiting with you!
Kindly, Lorraine

SvaraRaderaI remember when the wall came down, it was a wonderful end to a terrible time.
SvaraRaderaThe Holocaust Memorial is moving; before I had gotten to your explanation, I thought of tombs. So many died, just because they were Jewish...Man is capable of great inhumanity.
This is so interesting and educational, kinda emotional too. thanks for taking us along...Christine
