First full day in Berlin

Our bags made it to Berlin… yea!!!
The Viking trip leader coordinated with the Viking people at the airport. Saved me a round trip taxi ride($70 each way). And instead of spending the day getting our bags we met up with mom’s friend, Marianne and husband, Greg snd did a walk and local bus ride. Went out for lunch and saw checkpoint Charlie, the famous gate between East and west Berlin during the Cold War.

Looking from East Berlin (communist controlled) to the American side of Berlin . The little shack in the lower right corner is the famous guard shack known as Checkpoint Charlie.
