BERLIN, GERMANY
Liz and Lee Heidhues 11.17.2023
Liz and I have been in the Moabit Berlin neighborhood over a week.
Our first trip out of America 🇺🇸 to Berlin in over five years.
A preferred mode of transit is the bicycle.
We are just hanging out as if we are locals leading a regular life. Taking public transit. Shopping. Going to cafés and restaurants. Chatting up the merchants and citizens of Berlin.
Moabit is a heavily Turkish neighborhood and we have eaten several meals at the Turm Bistro.
Twice we have dined at a nearby Italian restaurant Osteria dell’ Arte where the staff offered us expensive drinks on the house.
Earlier Liz and I spent an afternoon at the ✡️ Jewish history museum. The current special exhibition is a deep look into the lives of Jewish people in the German Democratic Republic (GDR). Formerly East Germany.
There is so much history in Berlin.
