| The new palace in Potsdam from the air |
Berlin city of my youth. Dirty, noisy, but surprisingly green. To celebrate seeing the friends I hadn't seen for 6 years I came down with a nasty cold. Typical. I also forgot to take my camera with me when seeing them, so most of the Berlin trip will only be remembered.
Except of course for the
shoes. We did find time to do a little sightseeing / shopping when I wasn't hacking up my lungs on the sofa. Julian had to see Hackische Hoefe and
Tacheles (before it closes down), but otherwise I didn't manage to take him to the area where I used to live (
Lichterfelder West), which is a really attractive area of town and really did surprisingly little in the 9 days we were there.

| These are a few cold cuts available at the market at Hackische Hofe, my question is, would you be inclined to eat the teddy bear wurst????? |
I was really happy to see Irene, Yvonne and Rainer. Maybe they will come and visit me in Australia sometime soon? Irene is to be relied upon for the top tips when it comes to good food. My life would not have been complete without tasting
Rosa Canina's organic chocolate and spice icecream or raspberry and basil. Mmmmm.
Clare's two new 4 month old cats kept us amused for hours with their antics.

| Yes the fatter cat does have his entire head inside the kitty biscuits box... |
