Karl Marx Allee

I went for a wander down Karl Marx Allee in Berlin. I found some interesting cold war era features.

Berlin wall

Guard tower used for keeping an eye on the death strip

The last time I came to Berlin I only saw a small section of the former wall separating East and West Berlin. So I went on a walking tour.

Google Glass

Thanks to the lovely Sophia Dominguez for letting my try out her Google Glass. I had the pleasure of meeting her as she was touring around Europe.

Christmas in Berlin

Berlin is by far the busiest city I’ve ever been in at Christmas time! The place was cranking full tilt.

Reichstag

The Reichstag is a spectacular looking building in Berlin, which was used by the German parliament from 1894 to 1933.

Berlin Siegessäule

I climbed to the top of the Berlin Siegessäule (Victory Monument). The monument was originally built to commemorate the Danish-Prussian War.
