Cup 2006 in June, but there’s plenty more to enjoy: picture-postcard towns,
festivals, endless art and huge forests housing delightful castles ...not to
mention the Rhine!

Travel to Berlin
After
a fifty-year lull, Berlin is back – back as the capital of a reunified Germany
and back as one of Europe’s greatest cities. After World War II, Berlin was a
crippled pawn, sandwiched between East and West, with a literal and metaphoric
wall deeply dividing the two halves. The northeastern German city even suffered
the ignominy of losing its capital status, as the West German government fled to
Bonn. Today, the Cold War and the iconic events of November 1989, which saw the
Berlin Wall torn to pieces by those whom it had oppressed for so long, are
starting to seem like a distant memory and all the talk in Berlin is of the
future. more ....
Bars, beers and more bars…and more beers. Aside from that
there's only the cafes, cabarets, casinos, concerts, clubs and the high
voltage music scene to keep you occupied!! The home of decadence since the
Twenties, Berlin has more to offer than a sweet shop counter, although some
of the ‘shows' may raise your eyebrows. Since re-unification, you can find a
great mixture of bars: from quieter watering holes in the East to the full
glitz and glam of the West.
