What I was doing on this date 21 years ago....

as it's been said before...A PICTURE IS WORTH A 1000 WORDS!

Me and my daughter Britton...standing by a hole in the Berlin Wall! 

She was 5 years old.

 My husband Greg with our daughter Britton.
She looks like Punky Brewster! LOL

 Greg was a soldier in the Berlin Brigade...4th of the 502nd. He was off work on this day!
So glad we had the chance to go check it out. 

Greg talked this fine gentleman into pounding off a piece of THE WALL for us.

Greg has it on his desk at work to this day. He's retired now after serving 24 years in the Army. Now he works for the ARMY RESERVES.

Walking the WALL...these photos was taken a few hours after the big night time celebration that was seen world wide. Thus the reason there is trash on the ground. Germany is a very clean and neat country.

Looking through the hole in THE WALL! East German soldiers having a talk on the other side...this is the area they called the KILL ZONE where many defectors were shot and killed.

An Observer straddles the WALL looking at the ruins of East Berlin. Definitley felt like you were in a time warp. East Berliner's were still living life as though they were in the 40's.

East German Guard "Look Out" Tower in the middle of this picture. 

Looks like the towers we use in Prisons today.

Final farewell to the Berlin Wall!

Photos taken November 9th, 1989

in West Berlin, Germany.
