I'll admit it. I was ignorant about Berlin, Germany. I guess I just pictured the Cold War and thought it wouldn't be something I'd enjoy. Boy was I wrong! So wrong, that I wish we could've spent more time there. I love it when I visit a place that is not only beautiful, but also offers up a history lesson that I didn't realize I needed.
