 ...no leather trousers and beer, but fruit wine in spring time...

01.05.2011 - Absinthe

...instead of Absinthe usually "Maibowle" is the traditional drink for the traditional "Tanz in den Mai" (May Dance) - unless you celebrate with the association for glamorous amusement "Boheme Sauvage"...

...the heraldic animal of Brandenburg welcomes his guests to the 132. Baumblütenfest...

22.04.2011 - From Russia with Love

From Russia with Love: 
Beautiful russian girl from Moscow is touching her grandfathers tank at the Sovjet memorial in Berlin-Tiergarten.
"But there must be another Sovjet memorial", she told me - much later I realised she was right, you can find it at Treptower Parc..., but that didn't matter , I showed her other things... ;-)

21.04.2011 - polar bear

sei eisbär (be ice bear)
sei meister (be champion)
sei Berlin (be Berlin)

Nice background for a souvenir photo, although I doubt that these tourists know
- what's written down there
- that two days ago the Berlin Icebears won the championchip of the German Ice Hockey League

Apropos Eisbär...,
the well beloved Berlin polar bear "Knut the cute" died one month ago ;-(

20.04.2011 - Middle of the Road

...did you expect other photos when you read „Middle of the Road“? - That confirms the fact that the medial strip is always totally neglected..., imagine what you could do on that strip...
