Dresden, Zweimal

Two visits to Dresden, one in the dead of winter and one in Biergarten season (spring) with the (not-so) lil bro. The Altstadt in Dresden is super cool because it was essentially completely destroyed in World War II (that little firebomb thing kinda worked...), and in the early 2000s was rebuilt in the old style. So it looks old but is actually quite new. Anyways, highly recommend a visit.
