Great pictures

@KL......I know what your thinking/referring to because that is more or less what you said when we got our first glimpse of the USS Texas on our approach in the car.

Yes sure was, it´s much bigger then you think.
If you arrive in Kiel on a ferry the boat and the memorial is clearly visible from the port side of the ferry. As is Moltenort a little later.
The Laboe Ehrenmal is a very special place, gives you some perspective on things.

Your wife my be giving a funny look in one of the pics. But at least she went on the tour with you. They would have to have a designer clothes shop on the sub for my wife ever thing about accompanying me on a tour of one.
