First congrats to you and your son! Wow, what an accomplishment!

And he gets a whole year in Berlin! Great city! I live in Germany and LOVE it here! We get by with one car, the land is so beautiful and there is so much to do besides shopping!! We love that the stores are closed on Sundays because we get out with all the people walking around and taking in the beauty.

Look forward to hearing about your visits!
