I am so blown away by this installation: yet another reason to live in Berlin! In order to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, a French theatre group put on a show entitled "The Berlin Reunion" which lasted for over four days and featured larger-than-life marionettes.

The marionettes, the Big Giant and his niece, the little Giantess, walked the streets of Berlin
. The storyline of the performance has the two separated by a wall, thrown up by "land and sea monsters".
The website says, "The Big Giant has just returned from a long and difficult - but successful - expedition to destroy the wall, and now the two are walking the streets of Berlin, seeking each other after many years apart."
You have to see these
pictures - just awe-inspiring.

Inside Out blog today which profiles some more Berlin architecture and images.
Thanks for this - can't wait to follow up these links! We're planning to go to Berlin next September - so exciting! :) K
