The way the violence at the border cities are keeping the tourists away, I would bet you could get a tooth removed even cheaper now. Look at the tagging on those three buildings next to the church.
Hell, they'll remove a head for free in Ciudad Juárez. I'd barter. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Vaillant 3.0 from Thursday, December 16, 2010 3:47:01 AM)

Now then. Just got a call from my mom. I get to travel with her and a friend outside the country for one day! Where to, you ask? Well, it's a little ways away from Los Angeles (just a tad). My family and I used to go to this place frequently, although not in recent years. We usually go there to get cheap natural medicine that actually works. It's our version of Canada, so to speak. Next Monday, we're going to...:
*drum roll*
TJ (Tijuana, MX for those who don't know). Believe it or believe it not. And this time a passport will be needed to cross the border.

Bricks inlayed onto the road mark the area where the Berlin Wall used to stand.
Checkpoint Charlie!
Anyone remember these little guys?

Here's the Reichstag, the parliamentary building. Visitors could visit the dome and walk around. As you can see below, there's a really long line to get in.
...it was worth it, though.
Here's the Berliner Dom, the city's main cathedral. It's HUGE up close!! So pretty, too.
I swear, that tower was not Photoshopped into this pic, nor in the one above. One can see it from anywhere in the city, even from the plane as it lands.

Amazing. The Brandenburg Gate looks exactly like the main plaza in Lisboa with the exception that there is also a giant statue front and center on the ground in Portugal.

First off: The remains of the Memorial Church as can be seen from a distance.
Here's the Fernsehturm (TV Tower), standing in the former East Berlin. This was a sight that greeted my classmates and I as we made our way to the U-Bahn (metro station).
A church near our class.
The Brandenburg Gate.

Thanks, everyone! You all just HAVE to go to the Rockcafé Halford. Add it your bucket lists or something. See it before you die. You'll be amazed at the amount of stuff the owner has on display. If you do decide to go, go on a Friday night (it closes at 12:30 a.m. on the weekdays).
The first time I went it was to celebrate Rob's birthday right after it struck midnight. There was no one there except for the owner. He was wearing a "JP United" tour shirt and a JP Cross pendant that said Halford on it. He was such a sweet-natured guy. I asked for a "Nightwish" (a White Russian...damn good!) and left shortly before closing time. The second time I went was on a Friday, several hours before leaving Berlin for the US. There was more people this time, and men had to pay an entrance fee. When I went in, one of the bartenders thought I was a guy and asked that I go back and pay four Euros. Another bartender told him the exception for women. He looked at me again, saw that I was, indeed, female, and he promptly apologized. This time I got hot chocolate (couldn't get any alcohol thanks to the cold I picked up the day before). There was another room (a "wing", if you will) that served as a discoteque of sorts, and this time it was open. The DJ played all kinds of Heavy Metal music and you could either "dance" to it or sit at the tables and simply listen. At one side there's a stage where bands can play...and back at the bar behind the statue there is a lounging area with leather seats. Oh! And mixed drinks are given band names. There's a Halford one, although no Judas Priest one. Sucks.
So...like I said...GO THERE!
