Saturday Urban Life - Berlin

When visiting the Capital of Germany, Berlin, this week I shot 130 photos. All of them could be presented under todays meme, but I have only chosen some that present the focus my wife had on "animals".
In the former East Berlin at Unter den Linden the Russian Bear still is present.When turning the corner to the shopping street Friedrichstrasse a different "animal" can be found, and the smile in Tullen´s face can easily be interpreted as "please use your creditcard I love this Bugatti Veyron". If you want a car with over 1,001 horsepower and have one and a quarter million dollars to burn, the Bugatti Veyron may be for you. An exclusive club indeed. Further down this street and close to the Checkpoint Charlie the Blue Buddy Bear seams to need her umbrella instead of hands when the heavy rain increased. At Potsdamer Platze the Indoor Legoland´s Giraffe is of course part of this urban life,and the cow outside Marche at Ku´Damm (former west Berlin´s main street) must also be shown.What the last photo is meant to be, is not documented by research but may be my brain will look like this after years of blogging.

Spennede da gitt, å få et lite innblikk i en for meg ukejent by.
Ser dere hadde litt regn, men håper og vet vel at det ikke la en demper på deres dager der nede?? Øl kan vel drikkes selv om det regner..., nesten så dette innlegget ditt er en fotosafari i seg selv... så mye ville dyr... sikker på det var i Berlin dere var??

Lørdagsklem herfra.
