So recently (March), I was in Berlin, Germany, where I was with a few friends for a mate's birthday, just enjoying ourselves really, and whilst we were there, we went to the East Side Gallery, among many other attractions of what I would consider my favourite european city. The East Side Gallery is one of the remaining parts of the Berlin Wall, or Die Berliner Mauer if you speak good ol' Deutsch, and is quite famous for it's artwork and for the fact that it is part of the ominous Berlin Wall, standing there as a reminder of Berlin's, and of course Germany's past. However recently there have been plans ahead to remove it and build apartment building. In my personal opinion this is wrong and the gallery should be preserved. I hate to see history being wiped out. When we arrived at the gallery, there was a demonstration/protest against it's demolition, and I took two videos (not fantastic). Have a look if you want.
More soon readers.
