Kevin and a tall statue
A demonstration behind Brandenburg Gate
Lots of people that night...
The Reichstag Building from the side...
Kevin solemn at Parliament...
Close up of the Reichstag Building as we queue to enter... super long queue... and it was so chilly... worse still... I am pregnant!!!!!
View from the Parliment building...
Up the Dome at the Parliament...
Walking round in circles in the Dome...
The purpose of having this Dome above the Parliment house (with people walking in it) is to constantly remind the ministers (who are in Parliament meetings) to keep the people in their minds with every decision thet make...
Pregnant Shanshan walking... tummy not that big yet... hee...
see... so many levels...
Shanshan slow as a tortoise...
The Dome looking down at the Parliament...
Kevin laying himself down after walking through the dome...
Super ghostly picture right??? hahaha...
Wet night in Berlin... Chilly...
Night walk and passing by the structures
The Charlie Check Point
Isn't it amazing how last time they were just separated by a sign.. just by crossing the line... you entered another country..
History for your info...
The Berlin Wall with history of events... We spent a long time walking through all of them to see what happened back in those days...
The US flag at check point Charlie
The guard house...
Kevin at Check Point Charlie
Shanshan trying to run across the border... Now I am in America, Now I am not...
Check Point Charlie was the name given by the Western Allies to the well known Berlin Wall crossing point between East and West Germany during the cold war...
The history of events along the wall...
The ground inscription...
Kevin, which way are you heading? East or West???
The Soviet soldier on this side, The American soldier on the other side... which depict the separation of the two sectors...
Heading back to our hotel for the night... The metro station exit...
