May Day in Berlin/Kreuzberg

Why was this picture, Tobi next to a Porsche, worth taking?
For some years now, parking a nice car near the May Day festival in Kreuzberg is not a good idea.
The day is mostly celebrated as a huge festival with lots of bands, food, and theater performances

Critique of capitalism cannot be missed....

and also delicious food...
Che flag next to some pretzels...


Someone has to clean up.....

The evening begins....

Over the last few years on my way to the university, I occasionally took pictures of the Palast der Republik (Palace of the Republic) in its different stages of demolition. The Palast der Republik, once the symbol of socialism of the GDR, has now vanished into history books and the www. As of April 2009, where the building once stood, there is now a vacant lot.
