Today is a holiday in Germany -- Tag der Deutschen Einheit, German Unity Day. A celebration of German reunification in 1989. I remember seeing people on the top of the Berlin Wall on the news. I was elated and astounded. Just a year before I had been there and left thinking, this will never change. There will always be an East Germany, a communist Czechoslovakia, a USSR, etc.If you're a listener to German radio, you will likely have a treat today. More German artists and songs than normal. Yay!
