If you are reading this post, then we have our phone set up for posting to TwinF in real time. I just took the photo above minutes ago. Any time you see a low resolution photo and "uploaded by LeeLeFever_TwinF" it means it was posted via our mobile phone - the Palm Treo 650.

So we're leaving Berlin. I had heard so much about Berlin, I think my hopes were too high. I expected a hip, alternative and very energetic city and we did see some of that, but I wasn't that impressed. What was really impressive is the modern architecture - the Sony Center, the Hauptbahnhof Train Station (the biggest in the world) and the Reichstag Building are all modern masterpieces in my book.

Alas, we are now off to Prague and a heavy dose of old Europe...

Hi Lee, have fun in Prague but beware of pickpockets. My dad is there now and had his wallet lifted just the other day. Lucky thing he made photocopies of his credit cards before the trip and sent them to my sister here in Seattle. Right after the theft, he just called her and she was able to report the theft to the credit card people immediately. If you see a portly American gentleman, mid 60's, probably wearing tweed, and accompanied by a very short European-looking lady, it could be my dad. So stop and say hello for me. :-)

We've heard a bit about the pickpockets and we will keep an eye out for it - and your Dad! Thanks Carrick!
