yumyum Tue Mar 25, 2008 22:14 UTC Excellent page! I really liked Görlitz but unfortunately the churches were closed by the time we actually had time to visit them. We obviously walked too long in Poland, haha. | HORSCHECK Mon Mar 24, 2008 23:01 UTC Ingo, I just had to recheck your fabulous page. We have been here on Saturday and really loved it. Especially the Whisper Portal is amazing. The Karstadt is now a Hertie. Afterwards we even went to Zittau for dinner. | Kathrin_E Sat Mar 8, 2008 18:42 UTC Wahnsinn... Görlitz kommt auf die Liste für die übernächste Reise in Eure Gegend!! | iandsmith Thu Jan 11, 2007 06:18 UTC A true jewel! I'm off there next month (and Dresden as well). |
