Berlin

Last week I accompanied my husband to a conference in Berlin.

I spent an action-packed few days on sightseeing tours with 

social events in the evening, which included a cocktail party,

a Cabaret show with songs from the musical and a dinner dance in a 

Museum. I visited the Checkpoint Charlie Museum and did a Cold 

War Tour. The Art Tour day was spent visiting the Old 

National Gallery and the New National Gallery, a contrast in both

 building styles and in the art works. We spent a beautiful, sunny day

on a river trip in Potsdam

Berlin is such an interesting city, with so many new buildings and changes

taking place, but the memories of the past are all around.

Here are some photos of Berlin.
