Let's stART
with ART

Hamburger Banhof Museum
Hamburger former Railway Station

Modern Art to the max

This piece is from the permanent collection

it was created by applying paint to the canvases 

and then rotating the canvas to transfer the paint onto the wall

What really stood out was

1939 - 2018

who is new to us, even though he is American

His work is iconic in that he has created works of art

to honor such people as

Barack Obama   

  "Apps for Obama"

Martin Luther King

"King's Wish"  

and other special works for Prince, Andy Warhol 

and many others

Berlin(train) to Wannsee(boat) to Werder Island

3 hour open air boat trip

traveling through the area of historic Prussian summer palaces, 

a museum where Hitler made his 

decision about Concentration Camps.

The Bridge Of Spies

where Allied spies and Russian spies 

were exchanged during WWII

and finally Werder Island

A wonderful respite where we enjoyed 

lunch and visited a winery 

this map shows some of our day trip 

and the massive amount of rivers, 

lakes and waterways around Berlin

Berlin Philharmonic

Berliner Philharmoniker

at an outdoor amphitheater next to the 

Berlin Olympic Stadium

and of course, 

the train ride home

with our friends

Timing is Everything

especially at this world famous clock

at Alexanderplatz, Berlin

The 360º clock shows all the time zones around the world

It was fun to see so many locations on this clock where 

MRW has traveled
