July 6
We are learning more specifics of the spoils of war, visiting cities in East Germany. Dresden almost made it through WWIl before the Brits dropped their bombs on the center of this city. It is quite impressive to see the recovery process of these magnificent 18th century palaces, churches, civic buildings. An amazing find was a tour on our own to the "treasury" from the Green Vault of Augustus the Strong. (It's good to be the king!)
