Oh how I wish we had a UNIQLO store here in Ireland - or I would be very
happy if they just started shipping here! For now I'll just have to
make do with ogling the new Celia Birtwell collection over at the UNIQLOwebsite.
One place I had to visit in Berlin was Tchibo. My Sister-in-law first
alerted me to these coffee shops which feature a regularly changing
range of products. As you can see they were in full Easter mode with
these wonderful breakfast and decorative items.
Having been to Berlin a few times now we decided to visit some places we
had not seen before. First on my list was Galeria Kaufhof in
Alexanderplatz. This was billed as the KaDeWe of East Berlin and it did
not disappoint with a wonderful Food Hall and Steiff and Pippi
Langstrumpf collection in the Toy section! After a look around Gestalten
and lovely bagels in Barcomi's we headed to Alexa Centre to view the
wonders of the Loxx Model Railway. All in all a great first day in a
wonderful city.
