Those are great pictures. Berlin is a great city. : )

Did you get to see the Kaiser Wilhelm Gedächtniskirche while you were there?

Unfortunatly not, was visiting friends of my other half for four days, went to Seelow, stasi museum, Karlshof, Central Berlin and various old DDR barracks in walking distance of where they lived. I think I pushed my luck as it was. Still spending Christmas and new year with her family near Darmstadt so will see what I can find there,

Regards

Hi Robin, brings back fond memories for me from when I visited in 2005. I went to the same places as you have shown.

I did visit the Kaiser Wilhelm Gedächtniskirche and have a few pics.

Cheers, Ade.

Hi Ade, Looking forward to maybe a longer trip next year. The friend we stayed with is a Berlin town planner and now being aware of my interest is compiling a list of out of the way or restricted access areas that he can take me to.

I'd love to have a list like that Robin.
My wife and I will visit Berlin in december of this year for 5 days.
25 years ago I visited 'Checkpoint Charlie' when it was still operational.
Anyone out there who can tel me where I must go ans what to visit.
I'm totaly interested in WWII, Cold War, Stasi etc.
Regards from The Netherlands,

Jos.

Hi Robin, I see the sheild on the Maxim is still not fixed on correctly giving it a sloped back look. It was like that when I visited. This kind of thing really bugs me

Sad aren't I

I see they now have guys to have your photo taken with in Russian uniform. There was a guy in DDR uniform sprayed silver in 2005!

Cheers, Ade.

I remember that guy Ade. I even got a picture with him. I think it cost 2 Euro.

The Sieggessaule is pretty cool too. You certainly can't visit Berlin without visiting the Reichstag as well.
