Bustling Berlin

July 19, 2010 - Berlin, Germany

This particular tour of Berlin was a bit more successful than the first time.  I've been really spoiled by the nice, big Canon Erich and I bought for this trip, so it was a little hard to take pictures with my small camera when I first came here.  This time, I got some really great shots.

The first stop on our tour took us to a museum housing the original Checkpoint Charlie guardhouse and "Leaving the American sector" sign.  Then we continued to Checkpoint Charlie itself - where I finally got a decent picture - and then on to the same modernized stretch of the Berlin Wall we saw on our last trip here.  I was a little bummed that I didn't get a picture in front of the original Berlin Wall with its original graffiti, but that's life!  Just a reason to come back I suppose.

We stopped for more good pictures in front of Brandenburg Gate, the Parliament House, and Charlottenburg Palace.  I also got to take some artistic shots of cool buildings and architecture around town, including the Holocaust Memorial.

Nic, It was great to have been able to spend some time with you on what ended as your last cruise! I was happy to be able to share some of what you experienced in your 10+ months at sea. I wish you well in all you do and if you are ever performing near Pittsburgh give me a shout out! I am so sorry that I missed you the last day on ship!!!! Never simple is it? Tell your mama hello for me and do well in all you do. Terri
