Website Update May 2024

The focus this month was to complete the reports from my trip to South Korea. Although primarily a holiday tour the trip to the DMZ was a special border focused day. A secondary focus this month was the updating of my Berlin Wall page(s) and the creation of a dedicated page reporting on Berlin Wall locations around the world.
