The Reichstag building, Bundestag



 

Mirrors in the Reichstag 
dome
In the heart of Berlin a short walk from the Brandenburg gate, the U.S embassy and is the focus of protest there is the Reichstag building the historical home of the German parliament. 

If you are visiting Berlin you must make this your main stop for a number of reasons. 

The first being that it is the centre of history, this is where the fire that was blamed on the communist party started and led to the Nationalist Socialist party coming to power with its dictatorship.

 Next it’s completely free, yes just outside the Reichstag building there’s a little hut on the main road take your passport and you can book a visit and walk up the dome and get a nice view of Berlin for free! 

Lastly there’s an audio tour that’s also free and points out all the land marks of Berlin as you climb the dome and it’s in your language of choice (with in reason). 
Reichstag Building 

There are some big displays that outline the history of the building and its reconstruction and the return to the home of the Bunde and German Leadership.

Sales, shopping and storms

Image
  Last night I listed some of the golf balls on eBay, the Titleist Pro V1’s and the TruFeel’s. Now it’s a crowded market on eBay so I placed them on promotion to be listed top. This morning I had sold both listings not for much but it’s a start.  After a quick visit to Tesco it was down to the local parcel shop to send them off.  It was an afternoon of preparing more golf balls to be listed and then a quick walk up Rowley lane and a big haul of 28 balls. When I inspected them at home three of the more valuable ones had small splits so we’re condemned to the bin.  I’ll keep you posted on more sales, have fun stay safe πŸ‘πŸΌ

Afternoon walk

Image
  It was an afternoon walk, I headed up to Rowley path as I feel there might have been a few Christmas golfers. I made it up to the top of the path and back. I found 11 balls today which was good going. The farmer had also been out with the chainsaw making the path safe by cutting some fallen trees. He’d left a can of two stroke petrol/oil mix near the tree so I grabbed it and left it on a fence post near to the farm for them to find in the daylight. It was a nice walk, I’ve finished Phoenix and I’m onto a new book so look out for a bad review.  Have fun stay safe πŸ‘πŸΌ
