Our Trip to Germany

Justin and I had the opportunity of going to Berlin, Germany for a produce conference. We had an amazing time. We went for a week. Justin's parents, my parents, and Katherine watched the kids for us. We are very grateful they did this for us so we could both go.

A picture of us on top of The Cupola. We had an amazing view of Berlin. This a picture of us on top of the Holocust Museum. This is an 5 acre memorial to the victims of the Holocust. Below is an incredible museum. We both learned so much in this museum. This is a picture of the tower ruins. This church was heavily bombed during the war. They leave the church up as a memory of the war. To the left is a new structure/church to symbolize re-birth.
This is a picture of Schloss Cecilienhof palace in Potsdam, Germany. This is a city out in the country it is about 45 minutes from Berlin. For you history buffs this is where the Potsdam Conference was held with the head of government Truman, Stalin, and Churchill. They met here in order to seal the future of Germany in a treaty.

Amazing Trip!!! Pictures just don't do this vacation justice.
