I've lived in Australia since 1959 together with my husband Peter. 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. Peter, my husband, is publishing some of his stories under berlioz1935.wordpress.com

A very fascinating look back into history Uta.
The air transportation of so many trees for transplanting, is a massive organization and must be commended by the West Germany sponsors.

Hi Ian: Please go to the above link. It shows great pictures what the Tiergarten looks like these days.
250 000 trees, this sounds indeed massive. And all this during the airlift. Makes you wonder how this was possible!

Unbelievable the difference Uta, its a real green and thriving park now, it is hard to compare the same location.

It is indeed a green and thriving park, Ian. We lived next to it in Sep/Oct 2012. In Jan 2013 I blogged about it. I remember this park so very well. 🙂
