Buggy Street Art - Potsdamer Platz


There really is art everywhere we've been so far as we wander Berlin. These crocheted pole covers took us by surprise as we passed by on our way to view a sculpture. All of them full of whimsy with figurines and other embellishments, this one got downright buggy.

Potsdamer Platz


Is it a train station? A shopping center? A tourist destination? Yes! We headed to Potsdamer Platz without expecting much. After reading the tour book we decided we needed to have coffee at Cafe Josty, where intellectuals and artists used to gather. We discovered that the cafe was encased in glass, as were most of the other buildings, inside the Sony Center.

In the photo above you see the conspicuous canopy of the Sony Center. In both photos I am standing next to a fountain, leaning over a glass railing, looking into glass that is both reflecting the canopy above and revealing a walkway with tables below.


Yes, those are my shoes. First day in Berlin I walked 10 miles in those shoes! I love Dansko.
