Recently Seen in Berlin  Berlin’s fernsehturm — Berlin’s iconic tower. Sometimes photogenic, but not always.
 The Schӧneberg gasometer – in my ‘hood. Visible for miles.
 This is Potsdamer Platz on a brilliant Sunday morning. Could not look better.
 A week ago I popped in to Tastees, Berlin’s Jamaican restaurant, for dinner. Amazingly good food.
I’ve been to Tastees three times — I’ve never had a bad meal.

TQE : That Queer Expatriate I'm an American living in Berlin, Germany -- which makes me an expatriate, not an ex-patriot. Before landing in Germany, I've lived in Denver, Colorado; Laramie, Wyoming; Bloomington, Indiana; and Weimar, Germany. If you want to write to me, feel free!

Those are some nice shots. Wish I could wander around the city there and take some photos…and hang with you, of course!
Does the gasometer have a function? I’ve seen those latticework rings in a bunch of places, and I’ve always wondered what they’re for.
Check out http://www.slowtravelberlin.com/the-sch%D3%A7neberg-gasometer/ for an update about the one in my neighborhood… it explains a lot!
That was utterly fascinating. I had no idea! Thanks for the link.
