Give me a High Five #5: East Side Gallery

Brother Kyle came to visit for a very short but lovely weekend. We took him around Berlin, showed him some of the touristy sites, as well as some of the non-touristy sites. One place that we visited was the East Side Gallery, a long 1-ish mile long stretch of the original Berlin Wall in what was once East Berlin, complete with some Street Art and Graffiti. It is known as the largest "open air art gallery." After walking the Wall, I looked back on my pictures, and really looked at how magnificent some of this art is. If it was on a canvas, it could be in a museum. Here are my top 5 favorite "pieces" from the East Side Gallery. As always, they are in no particular order.

So sad how this picture has been degraded. However, minus the graffiti, it is still pretty impressive.
