I spotted this workout ball in a building near the Sony Center, Postdamer Platz, Berlin October 2006. It caught my eye. I was back in Berlin again in November and of course had to check, was it still there? no…

Potsdamer Platz (English: Potsdam Square) is an important public square and traffic intersection in the centre of Berlin, Germany, lying about one kilometre south of the Brandenburg Gate and the Reichstag (German Parliament Building), and close to the southeast corner of the Tiergarten park. It is named after the city of Potsdam, some 25 km to the south west, and marks the point where the old road from Potsdam passed through the city wall of Berlin at the Potsdam Gate. After developing within the space of little over a century from an intersection of rural thoroughfares into the most bustling traffic intersection in Europe, it was totally laid waste during World War II and then left desolate during the Cold War era when the Berlin Wall bisected its former location, but since the fall of the Wall it has risen again as a glittering new heart for the city and the most visible symbol of the new Berlin.

The Berlin U-Bahn is a rapid transit railway in Berlin, Germany, and is a major part of the public transport system of the capital. Opened in 1902, the U-Bahn serves 170 stations (station at this photo is called Potsdamer Platz) spread across nine lines, with a total track length of 151.7 kilometres (94.3 mi), about 80% of which is underground. Trains run every two to five minutes during peak hours, every five minutes for the rest of the day and every ten minutes in the evening and on sunday. They travel 132 million km (83 million mi), carrying 400 million passengers, over the year. The entire system is maintained and operated by the Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe, commonly known as the BVG. Designed to alleviate traffic flowing into and out of central Berlin, the U-Bahn rapidly expanded until the city was divided into East and West Berlin at the end of World War II. Although the system initially remained open to residents of both sides, the construction of the Berlin Wall and the subsequent restrictions imposed by the East German government limited travel across the border: The East Berlin U-Bahn lines were severed from West Berlin; while two West Berlin lines that ran through East Berlin were allowed to pass through without stopping, although the stations were closed, with the exception of Friedrichstraße, used as a transfer point and a border crossing into East Berlin. The system was reopened completely following the fall of the Berlin Wall, and German reunification. As of 2007, the Berlin U-Bahn is the most extensive underground network in Germany. True to its original goal, it has been calculated that, in 2006, use of the U-Bahn amounted to the equivalent of 122.2 million km (76 million mi) of car journeys.

The Gods are dead: no longer do we bring / To grey-eyed Pallas crowns of olive-leaves! / Demeter’s child no more hath tithe of sheaves, / And in the noon the careless shepherds sing, / For Pan is dead, and all the wantoning / By secret glade and devious haunt is o’er: / Young Hylas seeks the water-springs no more; / Great Pan is dead, and Mary’s son is King. And yet—perchance in this sea-tranced isle, / Chewing the bitter fruit of memory, / Some God lies hidden in the asphodel. / Ah Love! if such there be, then it were well / For us to fly his anger: nay, but see, / The leaves are stirring: let us watch awhile. (Oscar Wilde)
