2. Check out this live stream NOW from Berlin --
It's kind of raw footage, but it shows what's happening at the moment (the second band is playing :-))

5. Can you believe how packed that stadium is?
What a beautiful moment.

My Swiss husband (43 years old) tells me that he can't recall a time in his lifetime when so many Europeans have gathered in one place to welcome a US politician. :)

8. It's very exciting!
And I just have to laugh when I compare this to Bush's Farewell European Tour.

11. Is anyone planning to do an Official Obama in Berlin thread?
I would offer to do it but I have an appointment -- not sure I can rearrange my schedule this late.

Make it a great day!

13. Nice to see Europeans waving American flags instead of burning them.
The Shrubster seems to elicit a somewhat different reaction.

All I could think about was that about a year ago, I was one person in a crowd of about 100 people at his first rally in Manchester, NH. Wow. Just wow.
