Blu

We looked at a lot of graffiti on our Fat Tire Bike Tour. This is by Blu, in the former West.

Brandenburg Gate

The Brandenburg Gate, with the Alexanderplatz TV tower visible in the background.

East Berlin apartments

Many apartment buildings in the former East are surprisingly modern with cheerful colors.

Intimes Kino

The constantly changing graffiti wall at Intimes Cinema in the former East.

Templehof

The grand, recently retired Templehof Airport in the former West has become a public park, used by kite flyers,
in-line skaters, and the odd bagpipe group. It was quite strange to bicycle down the former runways.

Ampelmännchen

The charming cross-walk men in the former East.

Pink pipes

There are pink pipes running above ground all over town. Berlin has a high water table, 

and these pipes drain the water from construction sites.

Berlin week: wir bleiben alle

"We are all staying."

A former squat, in the former East.
