I need to return to Berlin as well since my last trip was in December 1989, just one month after the wall was pierced (it hadn't even "come down" yet).

I too would return to Berlin with no problem. Right now we are vaguely planning the next city trip -- for me it's a toss-up between somewhere in the Balkans or eastern Germany. I'd like to go to Leipzig and Dresden, with a stop in Berlin, of course.

After seeing the pictures, I think I'll really enjoy Berlin, if I get the chance to visit. How many days did you spend, on each of your visits?

Thanks, Ansh. We spent 5 days each time. Could easily spend much longer -- the first time we didn't even get out of the former eastern part, the second time we went further west. But we didn't do any day trips to Potsdam or anywhere.

Rikita, Did you ever start a thread with photos of Berlin? All of my ancesters on both my mother and father's sides were German. I finally got to go to Berlin in Sept 2013 and I felt so at home. I am fascinated with Berlin! I probably would be in other German cities and towns too I'm sure. But Berlin captured my heart! I'd leave today if I could! yes, this one ... have to continue it at some point ... anyportinastorm.proboards.com/thread/5345/another-berlin-thread

time wise, well i had friends visiting for two weeks, and they still didn't see all they wanted to (of course, after 34 years i still haven't seen everything), but i guess even on a weekend you can still see a lot of things, it depends what you are interested in. still i think a week is a good idea, especially if you want to do a trip to potsdam too.
