I thought I posted this one in FT, but I cannot find it so I am posting it again...
It's mostly about the comparison between United's F and Lufthansa's F. In the middle is a quick trip to Berlin and back.

Really enjoyed this. On a recent quick trip to FRA I too scored a MB from the rental car agency and enjoyed rapid motoring also. High speed + sleep deprivation, however = :eek:
For what it's worth, here's a photo of the "wall" - really a zone in this area - from the mid-1970s. Note the electric fences, mined no man's land, and forlorn Reichstag in the background. (Taken from the Ost-West Express train, Ostend > Moscow.)

That's a great photo - you should put that in Flickr - there are people who are interested in these things. I do recall a YouTube video of a West Berlin trucker driving through the DDR to West Germany.

Wow Wiggums what a brilliant way of constructing a TR!! Did enjoy the bit on Berlin, visited it last year - the Checkpoint Charlie museum is quite an eye opener on how people smuggled their way across the border.
Really Enjoyed it:)

I'm glad y'all liked my trip report! I was holding onto the videos because I wasn't sure if it'd pass the FT rules. I'm glad I put all three down on the same day.
Whew! :) I have quite a few under http://www.youtube.com/user/wiggums1

Another great and fast video. I give up. After watching the three videos i am ready to go to bed, they are better than any sleeping pill.:)
