There is something magical about autumn in Berlin. Pushing aside all thoughts of a hangover after the first Schmankerl-Hüttn of the year in order to take advantage of the sunshine and unseasonably warm Berlin weather we headed for Gemeindepark Lankwitz yesterday.
The sun brought out the best in the autumn foliage and having picked the park at random from a Google Maps search we were pleasantly surprised to find deer, goats, sheep and ducks there.
As we have enjoyed a hot and dry summer and mild, sunny and sometimes positively balmy autumn in Berlin so far this year I can only assume that the winter is going to be ridiculously cold to compensate.
Beautiful photos.
I remember the smell of wet leaves in the fall in Berlin. I think it was leaves from the Linden trees in particular. I’d walk home from the U-Bahn station (Dahlemdorf) through the leaves and if I ever smell that particular scent again I’ll be back there in my mind in a heartbeat! 🙂 Thanks for the reminder!
