What a week

Hey guys!
Well my vacation week is now at an end. Left last saturday and went to Berlin till wed. That was quite the experience. Before i got there i was thinking that i was goin to experince another Copenhagen with some style and new sights. I was quite taken back once we got there and started to explore and see the sites. I came to realize that this was a city that had not seen peace in the last 500 years for more than a moment of time. Ill post some of the pictures later tomorrow so you can see what i mean. I saw a jewish memorial that had over 1000 stone pillars. Walked through them and was quite shocked. There are memorials all over the city toward those affected by the holocaust. It is suppose to be a symbol of never forgetting what there country once did. A daily reminder to fight against prejudice and oppression. Seeing the berlin wall was also something. In real life it is not some huge wall. Its probably 12 ft high, but yet it seperated families, friends, and loved ones for over 26 years. There were numerous pictures of the soviets and americans facing off at checkpoint charlie, which made one realize that germany has just begun to rebuild itself after the devastation of WW2 and the Cold War.
Next went to Prague from wed to friday. This is just about the most beautiful city i have ever visited. There were buildings and statues that were build over 1000 years ago. My country was not even an idea yet, yet prague was a flourishing city of growth and prosperity. This last saturday was also pretty interesting, Copenhagen had its annual Gay Pride week which ended on saturday with a huge concert and parade. The parade was really roudy and jolly followed by the concert which was excellent; having some of the biggest danish bands; Faggit Ferrys and Medina (Kun for mig!!)
Well hope everyone is well and its not too hot in So. Cal!!! Time for bed for me, have school tomorrow =(
