A tourist looks between concrete plates of the east side of the former Berlin Wall at the wall memorial at Bernauer Street in Berlin, Germany Thursday, Aug. 13, 2009, prior to the 48th anniversary remembrance celebration of the construction of the Wall. A wreath was placed at the memorial wall in remembrance of the wall's construction. The wall memorial was constructed in Bernauer Street using original parts of the wall in memory of the barrier which separated east and west Berlin which fell in 1989.

Yesterday marked the 20th anniversary of the day the wall separating East and West Germany came down. It was an historic, emotion-filled moment for those of us who remember. http://www.spokesman.com/stories/2009/nov/10/in-berlin-20-years-of-unity/
