I took a long weekend trip to Berlin with my co-workers. The morning we left was a beautiful Autumn day in Garmisch!

The Berliner Dom was built to look older than it actually is. Most of Berlin had to be rebuilt after the war. |

The first night we were there was the last night of the Festival of Lights in Berlin. We walked through the city to take some pictures of the historical buildings all lit up! |
