Travels guides do not always understand my mindset very well- more trumpet should be blown about a vast disused airport in the middle of a major city- Tempelhof. Once the vital for West Berlin during the airlift, now
runway area converted to a park, impressive 1920’s and 1930’s buildings- the scale is enormous. Fleamarket in the Mauerpark nearly made us miss the train to Prague, the margin was about 2 minutes. But here we are, after enjoying splendid scenery along river Elbe while eating in a very nice Czech restaurant car.
