Facts about Berlin!

Berlin is without doubt the most fascinating city in Germany. Covering around 341 square miles Berlin is a unique landscape. With its numerous parks, lakes and wooded areas it is sometimes easy to forget that Berlin is the capital of Germany.

Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 2 Review

So, last Thursday a few of us went to see the first midnight showing of the final Twilight and can I just say it was AMAZING!

All good things must come to an end and the astonishing conclusion to the Saga makes no exception. It illuminates the secrets and mysteries of the romantic films that have engaged millions. As advertised in the trailer that ended Breaking Dawn: Part 1 it leads to an epic confrontation on a frozen meadow.

On one side are Vampires from all over the world supporting the Cullen family led by Bella a new vampire herself, mother and wife to Edward Cullen. On the other side are the Volturi a collection of vampires from the wicked Old Europe.

There are decapitations and decisions to be made that lead to an epic conclusion!

I can assure you, devoted twilight fan or not you will love it!!
