Unfortunately we will not be able to meet and discuss Germany's History for the foreseeable future due to COVID-19 regulations. However when we do return we will be even keener to take part in U3A activities.
It is worth noting that the Berlin Wall has now been down longer than it was up. I have opened up my slide boxes and discovered some slides that show the wall in 1970. We will see them when we return.
In modern Berlin little evidence of the Wall exists. In the tour groups that we went on I was the only person old enough to have seen both sides of the wall. Not that anyone was impressed. Especially the tour guides.

Part of the Berlin Wall at Night, 1970
When we return we will be spending a full day on East Berlin. I hope everyone is looking forward to it.
