Photos From My Phone – May

Here are my May highlights from Berlin as illustrated by the photos I took with my phone.  Some of these photos have appeared in my Twitter feed, on my Facebook page or my Instagram account.

Early in May I went back to Burger de Ville and tried the Funky Pommes, which come drizzled in Garlic butter and topped with parsley – I recommend you try them for yourself.

I finally made it to see the Wannsee in daylight and it was so good I made a second trip and both times I stopped for a drink in the Biergarten at Loretta am Wannsee.

And I was joined by an uninvited guest…

Street Food Thursday has become one of the highlights of my week and I was back again almost every week in May.  The sandwiches at Big Stuff Smoked BBQ are just that good.

I spotted this drunk Octopus looking for a fight at Burgeramt

A brief spell of sunny weather (a false summer) meant that the flowers started to bloom in all their glory.

I took a wander around the Hansaviertel for the first time in ages and marvelled at the architecture.

Mauerpark is only a short walk from my flat so I made my first (of many) visits of the summer to the Bearpit Karaoke.

I spotted a beautiful old Ford Falcon parked on Paul-Lincke-Ufer…

And I was back at Mauerpark to take in the sunset

Fingers crossed and thumbs pressed (even though doing both at the same time is painful) that June’s selection will involve a lot more sunshine.
