Hi Wolfgang,

I lived in Berlin myself from 1986 to 1989 and also have an archive of
pictures. Here's two I took in May 1998 of Fichtenwiese and Erlengrund
and the Grosse Kuhlake from a plane. The pictures lay around for years
unseen and I only recently figured out exactly what the second one
was.

Sorry for the poor quality. The picture was taken on ORWO film
purchaced in East Berlin and the visibility throught the window of the
aircraft was bad. I only had a couple of seconds to take them and the
second one confused me for years afterwards. Apparently the Grosse
Kuhlake was walled off years after it was given back to the DDR. I
mistakenly assumed the second one to be the Eiskeller. I only heard of
the GK. recently.

John Kelly.
