Berlin's Border of Light

It is hard to believe that it has been 25 years since the Berlin wall fell.This was the city (divided at the time) where we got married, I went to college and our kids were born. Even during those years it was a wonderfully inspiring place to be. Beginning of November 2014 this vibrant city was once again divided, this time by a light installation featuring 8000 illuminated white balloons. The "Lichtgrenze" (Border of light) was the brain child of Christopher and Marc Bauder. It marks the course of what was once a depressing wall, recalling the brutality of the era while celebrating the peaceful revolution.
