Historical places


I've always wanted to visit Dallas. Why? Well, I was a fan of the TV series (oh the shame of admitting it- those visits to US Soap fan anonymous have obviously paid off) but that wasn't the reason really. It was more to do with seeing the scene of the JFK assassination, scenes of great historical events have always been fascinating to me. I've been to a few places here in Scotland, and the rest of the UK for that matter, but history seems to occur in other countries too..

This photo, taken last August shows me - no, not having a pee, nor anything else (my eyes were closed due to the sun!) - in the exact location of the Berlin Führerbunker. This was exactly the place where Adolf and Eva were set alight.
