Germany Photo Explosion

Photo time?  Photo time.

I mentioned that there isn’t all that much to see in terms of interesting old architecture in Berlin.  As you can see above and below, however, there are a few exceptions.

And I thought there were a lot of cranes in Toronto.

If you’ll recall my post about Rüyam Gemüse Kebab, I pretty much fell in love with the place. Mustafa’s Gemüse Kebap serves what is easily the most well-regarded doner kebab in Berlin, and you know what? Not as good as Rüyam. Not even close.

It’s not quite Venice, but Hamburg has quite a bit of water running through it, so sights like this are pretty common.

As far as I could tell this was a pretty standard apartment/office building, so I’d really like to know the story behind the big statue of the guy riding an elephant.

I came across this really great park in the middle of Hamburg. You can just relax in those chairs and watch as the occasional duck floats by.

Here’s a couple of the aforementioned ducks.

And finally, do you want to look like Michael Douglas’s character in Falling Down? Because this Hamburg eyeglasses shop has you covered.
