Besides our visit to the Wall, my other memory is from Christmas Day of that year. Leonard Bernstein was conducted Beethoven's 9th Symphony with the Berlin Philharmonic. The words of the Ode to Joy had been changed for the occasion with the word "freude" (Joy) changed to "Freiheit" (Freedom). All Christmas celebrating stopped and we sat in our living room watching this magical moment with tears in our eyes.

Here's an excerpt.
