Dresden this spring [View all]

Since we were close we decided to take my daughter up to see Dresden. She wanted to see the Frauenkirche, St. Mary's. This was destroyed during the fire bombing and not restored until after the reunification. The old buildings which survived haven't been cleaned of the fire's smoke.
