More from the streets of Berlin. So much to look at! The streets in some areas are so colourful it felt a little like home here in Melbourne. The very last one is another by Blu who we also spotted in Prague. Amazeballs!

That's all from our travels. I really want to revisit some of these places and would go tomorrow if I could but for now revisiting our pics will have to do! I hope you have enjoyed seeing them too. Tomorrow I will get back to what is going on here. It's pretty exciting too. Promise. I've been busy creating new things for a very exciting project.

Berlin I Love You! This may not be an overstatement.

Chimes of a clock rang out loud (I think that's what it was) and birds sitting on top of this building flew for their life but soon returned to rest again. There were hundreds of them!  

Oh yeah, we rode on the Ferris Wheel. Crazy hey? Hehe. I don't know when the last time was I went on one of these but the view was pretty fantastic.

Our first day in Berlin snowed. It was so beautiful and freezing. This actually turned out to be the only day it snowed however the next couple of days cooled down dramatically. I think we left the night before the first big snow fall. If this was just me traveling I would probably have no photos to show you as I barely take my hands from my pockets even when they have warm gloves on! We walked along the remaining section of the Berlin Wall and took in all the current murals painted along it's length.

There was so much to explore by foot in Berlin we could have walked for days but we only had three. This is some of what we saw.

 Beer and food was mandatory by the end of the day! 

The last stop on our trip was Berlin. We caught the train again and the landscape between Prague and Berlin in the Czech Republic was some of the most beautiful I'd seen so far. We didn't capture it all in photos as we were too busy enjoying the ride however here are a few we did get.

I hope you are having fun today whatever you are getting up to.

The incredibly beautiful Charles Bridge from five different angles. We never got sick of it!

Prague's retro looking trams! Love.

 

St. Nicholas Church in the centre of the Lesser Town Square (Malostranske namesti) where even the lamp posts are beautiful!

The Powder Tower built in 1475 which I couldn't help thinking looked like a viking!

Prague's amazing Astronomical Clock in the Old Town Square with parts dating back to 1410. I love it's Medieval style and the little skeleton guy at the top right closest to the center.

How cute, Prague is held together by giant buttons all over the streets.

 

The John Lennon wall. We were certainly feeling the love in Prague and didn't want to leave and what a sad day it was when we did.

Prague also has it's own little bridge covered in love padlocks. This was right near the Lennon wall.

And this waterwheel is right behind the bridge with the love padlocks shown above. The view is from the Charles Bridge at night. Gorgeous!

So much history. Here at the Old Jewish Cemetery there is said to be around 12,000 tombstones present and a possible 100,000 people buried. The feeling walking through this area was eerie and beautiful. A groundsman was raking the autumn leaves from between all the tombstones as we walked the path marked out for visitors.

  

The husbands favourite fast food lunch.

Super large scale graffiti we spotted in Prague. We later came to realise this was by Italian street artist Blu who's work we also saw at our next (and last) stop - Berlin!

Blu has filmed the production of a number of his large wall murals which are amazing, plus other graffiti animations however last year he created a rather indepth animated piece on evolution titled, 'Big Bang, Big Boom'. IT IS AMAZING to watch.
