Spreepark

Didier, a friend and photographer, went to Berlin for the second time this summer. Thus we went back to the Spreepark.

 

This old attraction park, the only one of the GDR, was a success from 1969 to 1989 and closed definitely in 2002, after what the owner shipped 6 of the attractions to Peru to open a Luna Park in Lima (and left everything else to be neglected). His Peruvian project failed. He was caught 2 years later transporting cocaïne on his way back to Germany... the drugs hidden in the "Flying Carpet" attraction.

First time we went there, we were caught and taken to the exit by Roms living in the park. So this time we were really cautious. We saw several of them patroling by feet and with a car, and managed to hide. This is the only attraction still working in the park.

Coffee doesn't help

1 day in Paris

I went to Paris for a day with the 6 a.m. flight that f***s you up for the whole day.

I saw Claire's new flat for the first time. She'll soon go back to psychology studies after nearly 2 years of break. 

Next to her bed, I loved this ironic association :

And this is Claire, waiting to enter a party at Le Nouveau Casino :
