Another look at the Lichtgrenze on the evening before the balloons were released. This was also taken near Checkpoint Charlie.

    1. If you think this is full, good thing you weren't there on the night of the liftoff. :)

  8. An amazing crowd, but given the occasion, entirely to be expected.

  10. A great day to celebrate but the 9th November in 1938 was the "Reichskristallnacht", when the Nazis burned down the synagogues. So much history , joy and despair.
