I didn't have any problem getting back to the ship, though. The people there are extremely friendly and seemed to love the USA. Only one problem. The country is very liberal, especially, sexually. It wasn't nothing to see two lesbo's making out on a park bench.
We took a week-end trip to Copenhagen from W. Berlin and while walking down the Stroget, I looked in a shop window. Displayed right there with the pipes and china and crystal were pornographic postcards! Yikes! I had never seen anything like that in my life!
Also, while in Berlin I lived across from the El Dorado night club, famous for female impersonators. I had not know that this even existed.
The times in the Midwest were very innocent when I grew up. I sure learned a lot while living over there!
