We went to Berlin once and I still treasure the documentation from when we crossed the border at Checkpoint Charlie. I also have a postcard of the bombed church with the then new stained glass column bedside it. I haven't been back though I visited Wurzburg when my daughter was at university there two years ago. The sound of the language brought back so many memories. I never learned to write it and my spoken German amounted to little more than zehn Brurtchen (rolls? spelling?) bitte. Last weekend same daughter brought a friend home - she comes from Dresden and I was shocked at how little I knew of the deprivation of even her generation - she is twenty-six - compared with our children's.<BR/>I hope your visit brings back affectionate memories.<BR/>Oh, and I still have a book of German folksongs called 'Wanderlust'.
