European Trip 20

One last set of shots from our Saturday night in Potsdamer Platz in Berlin, starting with the marquee of a theater presenting... well, you can see what the featured act is. I guess color is easy to translate into other cultures.

Here you see the front of the largest casino in Berlin. It didn't really resemble the gaudy hotels in Vegas, but I guess they would be just as happy to accept one's cash. Certainly neither the limousine nor carriage parked out front would turn heads outside Caesar's Palace either.

this sculpture stood in a pool of water that was quite large, but only a few inches deep. Much like the architecture, the public sculptures in the city alternate between classical styles and ultra-modern.

The closest thing I have to a self-portrait from the trip-- that's my reflection in what I think was a bank window, reflecting the street behind me as well. I should see if I can PhotoShop this into a slightly clearer version.
