Once the busiest intersection in Europe, it was totalled during WWI and it remained a wasteland during the cold war with the wall running across it.
After the wall came down, glittering new building mushroomed and with its new architectural landmarks like the Sony Center it is now a symbol of the new Berlin.

"According to legend, Sevilla was founded by Hercules and its origins are linked with the Tartessian civilisation. It was called Hispalis under the Romans and Isbiliya with the Moors. Its high point in its history was following the discovery of America."
We were told from researching websites like http://www.andalucia.com/home.htm
On this day 6/21/06 it must of been 115 degrees out. My husband and I decided to get a refreshment and something to eat. Our spanish was minimal and we carried our little black book of translations and basic sentences. We sat down ordered a beer an as we were admiring all of the senery when this African man smiled and all I could think of was to tell him "luna la miel" (I was told it meant honeymoon". Once I said that he sang to us and this is what it sounded like. I have no idea what it means. Enjoy.
I have to appologise about the fact you have to turn your head. I couldn't figure out how to flip it.
