Perhaps of vanity, personal pride, or just information provision, take your pick..

Lovely, beautfil and nice video about your beautiful country Karl. You know that I am fond of Germany. For me the line the Netherlands, Germany and Poland is normal due to the many travels to Poland, but also to Germany to Düsseldorf, Bad Bentheim, Dulmen, Kassel (Documenta 1992, 2002 and 2007) and Berlin and Helmstedt. In Helmstedt we spend time in a Hotel before we went into the DDR with my fathers Ford Taunus Bravo to drive to Poland. Helmstedt was a American and British NATO town on the border with the DDR. When we went to the discotheque in Helmstedt in 1987 my sister and I there was a large black (African American) Military Police guy in front of that discotheque as quard.

Thank you much for your very nice reply on Germany, myself had felt a bit bold in introducing such a presentation, but then for every question, is the answer, why not.
Including as of above, once again my thanks for your including, Denmark in your replied presentation. Whilst viewing was a cause of a great deal of memories flooding my mind. Yes, taxes are high in Denmark, but as the narrator explained, people as individuals to receive back a great deal of value that is what should be expected in life.
My self was surprised of the description of Mr. Walt Disney gaining such inspiration whilst in Copenhagen for his later designs and build of his Disney World, I was not aware of that, but now a bit smarter.
It was interesting of your travels through the past DDR to Poland, I have never been there at that time or after, for one, I was not allowed anywhere close to the DDR border let alone to enter. I was though laughing a bit with your description of the American military stationing an American military policeman Infront of the discotheque yourself and your sister were in, demonstrates the American military concerns over the safety of everyone there.
Your father certainly knew his autos {cars} for choosing a Ford Taunus Bravo, those were very well-designed vehicles and of good size over some of roller skate autos of that time.
