German Reunification Day

We attended a festival celebrating German reunification at Brandenburger Tor on Monday.  It is a national holiday in Germany, much like the 4th of July.  It was neat to think that where this festival was was where the wall once stood.  They are celebrating 50 years of the wall and 20 years of unified Germany this year. 

 This photo is neat because those bricks in the road show where the wall once stood.  Now this boy can ride his bike on top a line that divided so many families.

 Berliner Weisse is a white beer that you add flavoring to.  It is a very nice summer drink.  We had raspberry flavor.
