 Because we lost our passport, so we get back to Berlin earlier. We had some more days to go sightseeing around Berlin before I have to go back to my language course and Wira to his course in Charité.
This month we went to Altstadt Spandau and Schloss Sansouci in Potsdam. Besides that, we also walking around and try bus number 100 from Zoologische Garten to Alexanderplatz. It was nice ride, quite the same with the city tour bus. It can be an alternative if you want to go alone. We can also hop on hop off if want to see something. We visit Schloss Charlottenburg, Berliner Kunstmarkt, Rote Rathaus, Rathaus Pankow and walking around the city as usual. In Berliner Kunstmarkt you can find any kind of things such as painting, old recording, photos, handmade stuffs and other. It was fun to be able see this place. If I'm going to stay in Berlin for some more to time, I'm thinking to buy a painting of a cow in field. It was beautiful painting. Love it... I love walking around in this city but not alone :)

Sudah 2 bulan tinggal di Berlin, selalu bermasalah dengan penyimpanan kentang. Entah kenapa kentang yang dibeli selalu tumbuh tunas. Padahal belum lama belinya. Akhirnya karena penasaran, cari deh tips penyimpanan kentang supaya gak cepet bertunas.
Kata blog ini, tipsnya adalah menyimpan kentang dalam plastik tertutup dan simpan di tempat kering yang terlindung dari sinar matahari. Sinar matahari dapat membuat kentang menjadi kehijauan dan bertunas. Dalam suhu ruang, umur simpan kentang bisa mencapai 2 minggu. Dan jangan disimpan berdekatan dengan bawang karena bawang akan menyebabkan kentang cepat bertunas. Wah pantas saja kentangnya pada bertunas, ternyata selama ini penyimpanannya kurang tepat dan diletakkan didekat bawang bombai :) Dicoba dulu deh tips ini, mungkin bisa berhasil :)  Today was a one freezing day in January, and we decided to visit Schloss Sanssouci in Potsdam. It takes about an hour to get there from my apartment. First we took U-bahn to Alexanderplatz and then switch to RE train to Potsdam Hauptbahnhof. Since we already used monthly ticket, we just need to buy the extension ticket that cost €1.5. And from Potsdam Hauptbahnhof we change to bus (695/606) to get to Schloss Sanssouci. We used ticket for group that cost €9.5 for all day long.
In winter, day is shorter than night. Because we all went to Sanssouci around 12 from Berlin, we didn't have much time to see around. Sunset will be around 4 pm. So we take our own tour in there based on the map that I bought at the gate (€2). You can get inside the Schloss and there's another cost for it. But we passed that part. We continued to walk around the schloss and then toward the park and Neue Schloss. There's not much to see during winter, because all the statues are covered with wooden box, the fountain is frozen, the trees are bold. It surely a lot prettier during spring or summer. But it has it's own beauty during winter. It almost sunset when reach Neue Schloss, and we already walk for about an hour. We decided to take the bus back to town and find something to eat. After that we walking around the city and try Potsdam old tram. They give us two plans in the map that we bought. One is short tour that takes about an hour and the other is 4 hour tour. With 4 hour tour, you'll be able to see almost all part of Sanssouci Park. We decided we need to visit this place again during spring or summer... 
I love this app because it give different touch to my pictures. It doesn't make me a good photographer. It's an app for fun. Different from usual camera you use. Above of all, I still in love with my [lost one] DSLR camera and my old SLR camera.
This is a little bit review about Hipstamatic app for iPhone. The source can be looked in here. And for the pictures I took, just take a look after the review.  Gagal pergi ke Swiss, tidak mematahkan semangat kami untuk tetap jalan-jalan :). Apalagi akhir bulan Januari nanti, Wira akan berangkat ke Bergen, Norway. Jadilah kapan pun cuaca memungkinkan untuk jalan-jalan, saya dan Wira selalu menyempatkan diri untuk keluar dari apartemen kami tercinta.
Hari ini kami jalan-jalan ke Altstadt Spandau. Sebuah kota tua yang masih berada dalam area Berlin. Tempat ini seperti kota kecil yang terjaga keindahannya dan masih terawat bangunan-bangunan tuanya. Menyenangkan rasanya bisa berjalan-jalan di kota tua ini. Dengan jalanan batu khas Eropa dan hampir semua orang berjalan kaki, kita bisa menikmati segarnya udara musim dingin kali ini. Di ujung kota bisa ditemukan beberapa pedagang kaki lima yang menjual berbagai barang mulai dari peralatan tukang sampai seafood dan makanan lainnya. Silakan nikmati pemandangan kota tua yang sempat kami abadikan dan jangan lupa berkunjung bila sempat :). Disekitar sini juga kami melihat kecepatan polisi, paramedis dan dokter dalam menangani kecelakaan yang terjadi. Hebat euy...kayak di film-film... :) |
