Was in West Berlin on business 2 weeks before the wall fell, and my colleagues and I had a discussion about the wall and whether or not East and West would be reunited. We all doubted it would.

My wife and I visited the new Berlin a few months later, and of course went to the East side to experience the transition. The stores, the hotels, the museums, all rapidly changing.

We returned a few years ago, and the transition was complete. A thriving German city.

We were supposed to return almost 1.5 years ago with a group of friends, but the Pandemic canceled that, as well as the rescheduled trip last year, and we're hoping March of 2022 let's us all in.
