{ the Giantess passing thru the Tiergarten } One cannot just step in during a perfectly executed Grand National Episode, and say “Excuse me, BUt… “ Royal De Luxe created perhaps one of the most photogenic fairytale enactments in the history of historical commemoration. Surely more than a million spectators were on hand to to be mesmerized, in person, over a 4-day anniversary event of the reunification of Germany.
