Thursday 18 September




Our last day in Berlin....we visited the Nikolaiviertel,  Berlin's oldest quarter....in the centre of which is Berlin's oldest church , Nikolaikirche...recently renovated , it was beautiful.




Also in the area is the Berliner Rathaus, town hall...it was built in 1861.... I rather liked this stained glass window in the front of the building.




The Ephraim-Palais..a baroque palace in the area...just love the little windows at the top.




A nice photo of Pete looking at the Spree River and enjoying the sunshine...what a fabulous day it was.




On our walk from Nikolaiviertel to Museumsinsel I noticed these sculptures...so cool...especially with the two guys sitting next to them!




Our last stop...the Alte Nationalgalerie...which has also been beautifully restored....housed paintings by some of Pete's and my favourite painters. There is this very pretty fountain outside ....

Goodbye Berlin xx
