Some good photos in this story and some spots I'd like to visit.

In the unified Germany it is still possible to see the old border between the old east and west, in fact there is a cycle path that goes pretty much the whole way. Some parts are now a museum.
Where is this exactly?
We were hassled by an obnoxious immigration office at the Paris end of the Eurostar two years ago who viewing our Australian passports demanded to know if we had friends in the UK and if we planned to stay. I probably shouldn't have but I replied "Why in heaven would we Australians want to stay in the UK".Greece was enforcing its border last week on our cruise. Seriously, who would want to stay there from a cruise? We travelled across Europe in 1987 and no borders enforced throughout W Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Liechtenstein.
On that trip MrP also went into E Germany where the borders were obviously heavily enforced and visas almost impossible to get.
