Moonlight on Kastanienallee / Zionskirchstrasse

Berlin Kastanienallee Zionskirchstrasse

Almost full moon – but not quite yet. The houses on the corner of Kastanienallee / Zionskirchstrasse look yellow-ish, lit by the typical East Berlin yellow-ish street lamps.

In March the weather is finally a bit more friendly again – blue skies can be enjoyed over a period of a couple of days and the temperatures are currently between 2°C (~35°F) by night and 10°C (~50°F) by day. Spring […]
