127 MPH!

Here is a picture of the speed we are driving on an Autobahn on our way to Dresden.  The speedometer indicates 202 k/hr, or 127mph!

Here is a picture of the inside of the church in Dresden that got rebuilt after the Berlin wall fell in 1989.  It was constructed using some of the same stones as before it got bombed during the second world war.  Dresden got quite destroyed during the war.  The center has been rebuilt in the same old beautiful baroque style as it was before the war.  However, the new buildings outside of the city center are built in the plain and boxy socialist style.

We went to the top of Frauenkirche, which means Church of Our Lady.  The observation deck is 67.06 meters above the ground.  This picture was taken by my dad, Chris, with my brother and me on the deck.  Behind us is the cathedral (on the left) and the old castle tower (on the right).  On the right you can also see the River Elba.
