Arriving in Greece

It seems like we left a week ago but it was only last night. Thirty degrees on Rhodes. Quick freshen up then out for an ouzo.

Kas

Nightmare drive from Antalya yesterday. It was pouring with rain, there was dense fog, the driver spent half the time over the foible white lines in the wring side if the road ( what are those white lines for anyway....) and he was on the phone
But we survived and had a lovely dinner in Kas. We woke to this sublime view from the balcony this morning.
Kastellorizo beckons.

Italian in Berlin!!

The cuisine in Berlin us international as I have been informed by Angela.
We persisted with German food for a couple of nights then resorted to Italian. A great improvement.
Tonight Salumeria Enoteca Vaimo in Prenzlauer Berg.
Thanks Jess.

The grounds of the Chalottenburg Palace

The grounds were just beautiful and we were lucky to have a little sunshine. It was still very cold.

More of the Charlottenburg Palace

Charlottenburg Palace

We went by train to the outskirts of the city to visit the Charlottenburg Palace. Only the new wing in its Ruocco style was open, but the rooms were quite stunning.
