The most recent Excursions

A street in Altstadt Spandau

Wow, what an underground station!

: This underground station was our destination

From Spandau we went by bus to remote rural like Staaken for a family visit. This is at the furthest edge of Berlin.

Last night we strolled through the city center to get a glimpse of the Festival of Lights.

We went to the Jewish Museum today. I’ll write a blog about it some other time.

We have four children, eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. I started blogging because I wanted to publish some of my childhood memories. I am blogging now also some of my other memories. I like to publish some photos too as well as a little bit of a diary from the present time. Occasionally I publish a story with a bit of fiction in it.

  Hello, Ian,
  the Jewish Museum is a huge, huge place and all the information in it is overwhelming. One can’t possibly take it all in in one day. But you do get an overall view and impression about Jewish life over the centuries.I was impressed how many groups, school-classes and general public were at the museum. The huge place was immensely patronized which gave me a very good feeling. Sadly the Jewish Theater wasn’t very well patronized, at least not on that Saturday night when we were there.

  Likewise. I look forward to it also. I recently blogged about my Aunt Roma who is a holocaust survivor in http://www.LegacyTales.WordPress.com. She’s been an inspiration to me for 40 years!

Thanks for commenting, IT. The Festival of Lights was great fun, I mean we had fun walking through the streets and watching all the changing lights on a great number of public buildings.
