After breakfast at Oma's, I accompanied my husband to east Berlin to peruse a couple flea markets. I've never been so I was curious as to the popularity of them. We took the S-Bahn for a long while it seemed. This city is enormous. I'm still amazed at the size of Berlin.

There were many interesting items being sold at both of the flea markets we visited. The first one was at the place where the Wall used to be. It started to rain at one point, but it wasn't too bad. There were old dishes and baking pans which interested me. My first purchase was a dessert plate with cup and saucer set for only 5€.

My husband was eyeing an old manual calculator but decided it was too heavy to take on the plane. I also bought an authentic East German bundt pan and a dress and skirts for the girls. Sagey's gift was an old toy with three wind up cars on a track.
