A trip today to a giant outdoor flea market at Mauerpark exposed me to the vibrancy of Berlin. Although I didn't buy anything (except for a 2-Euro Bratwurst for lunch), I enjoyed walking through the market. People were selling everything from doorknobs and cassette tapes to screen-printed shirts and jewlery. In the open area of the park, people sat on the grass enjoying the warm day while children were entertained by inflatable jump houses, a balloon artist, a clown and a face painter. I also had fun experimenting with Hannah's 200mm zoom lens!
Members of the fire department helped children use fire hoses to knock over stacks of tin cans.
