While I know it's something that we've mentioned in passing on the blog before, going to the park to have a BBQ is sort of a cult-like activity here. One park in particular, which is called Paradies (thus the title of the post), fills up pretty well anytime the weather is remotely nice. It's mostly groups of students and young people, but there are some families to be found as well. You'll find people in other parks around the city, but not usually in the same concentration. To give you some idea of what the crowds look like:
And do you see the clouds of smoke rising above the whole field? Sometimes, when the air is very still, it gets to be almost like a fog. Here's a picture from later the same night, which shows the smoke even better. (In the foreground are members of the Spanish Stammtisch, who had organized this particular grilling party. Neither of us speaks Spanish really, but they let us hang out with them sometimes all the same.)
