I remember the day quite well. I visited Berlin just a few months later and for three dollars bought a souvenir piece of the wall which I still have. I keep it as a reminder about the abject evilness of socialistic/communistic totalitarianism, and how the West under the leadership of Reagan and Thatcher fostered its implosion and defeated it.
