Hi everyone.
I made a brief 3-day stop in Dresden, Germany on my way to the Czech Republic and visited Susann Berthold, who some of you will remember from the U of C. She was a great host and tour guide and took a few days off of work to show me around the city and surrounding area. The city was levelled during WWII and is being restored again after major flood damage from a couple of years ago.

Hi everyone.
I made a brief 3-day stop in Dresden, Germany on my way to the Czech Republic and visited Susann Berthold, who some of you will remember from the U of C. She was a great host and tour guide and took a few days off of work to show me around the city and surrounding area. The city was levelled during WWII and is being restored again after major flood damage from a couple of years ago. Aside from the cathedrals and palaces, an interesting site that we toured was an old underground fortress in the city centre. One day we took the train out of town and toured an old fortress on the top of a sandstone mountain, and also did a hike that gave some fantastic views.
Note to the peanut gallery: Mostly buildings and scenery shots, you might want to skip this one. I find that it's a lot easier to take pictures of things that don't move :)
