Snow is a rare guest in London and often a it’s visits are kept very short. We woke up to a beautiful white view outside, but the white is melting already and melting fast… Spring is on it’s way…. & I can’t await!
Beautiful British countryside. Ashridge Estate among our favourites, especially in autumn colours and smells…
We’ve been here before…
Lovely tea room/shop in Schöneberg where they have amazing tea selection and their food was yummy too
antique record player/old record shop (Schöneberg) and the sweet owner played a very very old gramophone for our kids to hear what first records sounded like
little public outdoor fitness place, something I would love here in our neighbourhood!
our new fun family game
layers old of posters…
National history museum was well worth a visit
we ate a lot of cakes, we always do in Berlin, and my favourite Russischer Zupfkuchen was the best from this bakery
Volkspark Am Weinbergsweg has a great playground on a hill on the edge of Mitte and Prenzlauer Berg
the Holocaust Memorial revisited
All in all, our traditional mini break in Berlin was as always – nice. We ate a lot, we walked a lot and still enjoyed the city – a lot. Now we just have to remember what we also love London for…

Hope you had a lovely weekend too! Enjoy the new week! x
What a treat: a trip to the town, without a dog (for the first time in 4 months!!!), to the Science Museum to see daddy at work and his work. Web Lab is one of a kind, interactive (both online and at the museum) 24 hour exhibition where users are be able to operate the exhibits even overnight when the museum is closed. You’ll find five experiments, each involves creating and sharing media in a way you’ve never done before. ‘Universal Orchestra’, an internet-powered, eight-piece robotic orchestra; ‘Sketchbots’, a series of robots able to take photographs and then sketch them in sand; ‘Data Tracer’, a map that traces where the world’s online information is physically stored; ‘Teleporter’, a series of web-enabled periscopes giving instant access to sites including a 24-hour US bakery; ‘Lab Tag Explorer’, a real-time visualisation of all ‘Web Lab’ visitors around the world (our daddy’s main ‘baby’ in this project). Everything you do is stored in a little personal “lab tag’ that you can continue to interact over the internet. And you’ll want to 
Our kids didn’t want to leave. And, now more than ever before, they both hope to one day be like daddy, do creative things like he does, share it with the world…
The best b-day present so far? My breakfast made and delivered at 7am by my two sweetest boys! Life is full of beautiful surprises…
Our regular walks in the woods. Living in the big city, but with a hint of a countryside. I wouldn’t want it any other way (at the moment)!
This little boy has just joined our crew & fingers crossed he’s here to stay!
