Weekend trip from London with Kate & Stu.

                                                                                                                                                    

Night One

 

 

In front of the Brandenberg Gate…

 

 

 

The anticipation of going to the top of the TV Tower…

 

 

… however it would not be possible this time!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Jewish Museum

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Jewish Memorial…

 

 

 

The Reichstag (parliament building)

 

 

 

Hauptbahnhof (newly completed and Europe’s largest railway station!)

 

 

 

 

 

Still willing to give the TV Tower a try…

 

 

 

Inside the Reichstag, the newly completed Norman Foster dome…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Apparently U2 was named after this train line… (kitsch I know!)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4 inches of snow overnight and -6º…

 

 

 

The Jewish Memorial again…

 

 

 

The Reichstag dome in the background (this time covered in snow!)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Tiergarten…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our last attempt at the TV tower was fruitless.  Voted by us as the

worst tourist attraction in the world…!

 

 

 

 

 

Berlin Cathedral…
