Finally Spring is HERE

It had been a long winter this year. Finally sun and a milder temperature today.
A short drive to Connecticut. You can see skyscrapers of Manhattan far away and the other side shows open ocean.

Busy Friday

As I am in NY only several days a month, I try to schedule everything on Fridays and Mondays. Sometimes it won't work as planned unfortunately. Yet I had a late lunch in East Village and a hair cut afterwards at least.

Fantastic Night

One of my reasons to be in Berlin - visiting Berlin Philharmonic.
It is interesting from outside and so as from inside.
Concert was titled as Easter concert so they played somewhat familiar music.
The couple next to me was from Paris, and they were amazed by the fact I am from NY, while I was about Paris.
Overall visiting Berlin was far better than I thought it would be. Highly recommended to come here.

The Wall

You can still see the remaining of the walls all over the city. This is one of the biggest one. It is low enough to cross over it but I read that there were a lot of tools not to make it possible to cross it.
Famous food stands in Berlin. No tasting this time.

Loving this Park

I know we have world famous central park, but I might like this Park better - quiet and not commercialized.
It is too early for any flowed to bloom but the sky was pretty today.

Germany, Japan and Italy

Due to the special relationship among these three countries during WWII, we have massive and over the top embassy in Berlin. All decorated with limestone. The street is even named after Hiroshima. Next to us is Italian embassy which is even bigger than ours.

German Dinner

You have to eat German food in Germany. Beer, meat and potatoes.
Basically big meatballs with some pickles. Not the best but ok good.
