Ikke (Nothing) II

Photobucket




Becoming oneself
is a movement one makes
just where one is.
Becoming
is a movement from some place but becoming oneself
is a movement
at that place.

Big Enough And Ugly Enough To Make My Own Mistakes

so for the last part of travel break I decided to do a quick jaunt to
Berlin
this is the view from the "Nordic Room" of the ferry across the baltic sea(?) to Germany from Kobenhavn
headed across a body of water at sunset



yup
(beginning of day one)
and then I was in Berlin, seemingly on a street-art mission.
It's a nice place and it was certainly interesting being there all by my lonesome.
I'm still standing and so is Berlin, so I'll call this one a draw.
Next time, I'm taking the title
awesome
been waiting to see this for awhile, the only cultural event (or anything) I paid for the entire trip

spy shot of beautiful german lady....don't judge. worth it.
saxophonist in the entrance to a park near museum island
and then I saw the sights
it was gorgeous weather so there were people eveeeeeerywhere
brandenburg gate version 1
and the Reichstag.

a much more interesting version:
http://www.christojeanneclaude.net/wr.shtml

After the project "The Umbrellas" Christo and Jeanne-Claude concerned themselves again, with wrapping the Reichstag in Berlin. With the support of the President of the Parliament, Rita Süssmuth, Christo and Jeanne-Claude worked to convince the elected Members of Parliament, going from office to office, writing explanatory letters to each of the 662 delegates and innumerable telephone calls and negotiations. On 25 February 1995 after a 70 minute debate at the Parliament and a Roll Call vote, the Bundestag allowed the project to go ahead.

More than 100,000 m2 of fireproof polypropylene fabric, covered by an aluminum layer, and 15 km of rope were needed. The wrapping began on 17 June 1995 and was finished on 24 June. The spectacle was seen by five million visitors before the unveiling began on 7 July.[citation needed]


sweet mural "E" bear near....somewhere in Berlin. a sign.

ah, Europe. great logo.
then I sat in the park for awhile and read/wrote/various

trumpeters in the park
ended up heading back to the hostel late only to find it had disappeared and all that was left was this telephone booth
false
(day two)
next morning, last Saturday
ping-pong in park
found a weird "Mellow Park/Beach Bar" on the old east side
"beach view"
still sweet




the east side gallery
The East Side Gallery is an international memorial for freedom. It is a 1.3km long section of the Berlin Wall located near the centre of Berlin on Mühlenstraße in Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg.

one of the coolest places I saw in Berlin






Borf? maybe it's a D.C thing


wanted to go there so bad. unfortunately, 20 Euro-too much


Robert Smith?

fresh wall
awesome
"marry me eric"
best movie ever
back in the city


chilled in another park....you should start to see a theme here
lone spanish guitar on the hillside
near Tiergarten


the rest of the afternoon was this
under this
with a lot of this.
then I got on my new harley and rolled off
nope, stayed in the park

somewhere across the city, bombed-out ruins
just the way I like them
sweet car
checkpoint charlie





brandenburg gate version two...it was much better in the afternoon twilight
I want one
I really do


Reichstag on the second time around
other view of the gate
quite a line for reichstag night I guess
and that was Berlin.

Now I'm back in Copenhagen but we'll see if something post-worthy comes up.
