fun at the Reichstag

I had a choice of blips today, being in a new place is inspiring! I chose this one because I found the juxtaposition of the fairground ride and the Reichstag amusing. Berlin is a very attractive city, at this time of year you really notice how leafy it is as all the new acid green foliage comes out.
We spent quite a while sitting in the Tiergarten, a large public park in the centre of the city, while our daughter got her academic qualifications certified at the British Consul. It was hard to believe we were in the city centre, it was very quiet and peaceful.
