I think you know I've been to berlin so it was SO AWESOME to see these pictures. brought back good memories. I've seen (and taken pictures of) many of these places, but not all. and it's so beautiful to see them in the snow. I was there during Aug. I'm jealous that you got to see the new Holocaust memorial. I went in 2004 when it wasn't built yet. it looks really cold in Berlin, but I'm sure you had a good time. :)
ReplyDeleteThe picture you took of Jeff Koon's sculptures with snow on them look like puffy donuts w/sugar on them :-)
ReplyDeleteI think my favorite is the Jewish Memorial, its epic.
