Berlin

On the way to Wittenberg we went to Berlin for the day. We spent 4 hours in the Museum of Germany's History Beginning to End. Then we went and saw Check Point Charlie, and then the American Embassy, and Germany's building that is equivalent to our White House. Its top is now a clear round ball, that the common people can go in to signify that Germany's Politics are now open to the public, and not hidden anymore.

East Berlin

 
A Mosaic of an Arabian Horse in the Museum

An old Saddle

A knight and steed in armor!

A three foot tall globe, Germany has been shot out, and Western Europe has been struck out with a blunt object

Trabant car from East Germany, It is basically made out of Cardboard. People had plenty of money to buy them, but they were produced so slowly that there was a 10 year waiting list for one.

An old church in Berlin

Standing on the West Side of Berlin, The cobbled stones are where the Berlin Wall used to stand

The Berlin Wall

Remnants of the Berlin Wall

The Tower that East Germany used to scramble the USA Radio Transmissions with

 
The USA Embassy, it is really near the German Capital building, and is much bigger, and is on East Germany Soil now, and it is to signify the USA's Huge Presence in Germany

The cobbled stone that make a turn is where the Berlin Wall used to be, right in the middle of the Road
