The best side-trip from Berlin is to the adjacent city of Potsdam. While today it’s a simple commuter train ride away, during the Cold War, Potsdam and Berlin were in two different worlds: the First and the Second. And the iron Glienicke Bridge was a particularly famous link in the Iron Curtain. I was walking across the bridge, playing spy exchange (my role: the American U-2 spy plane pilot, Gary Powers), when a party raft equipped with a cool keg of beer distracted me. This was one of those times when I wish I could just be on vacation.
