We had a very interesting time driving through Germany when I was a kid, since my father’s German was largely Yiddish-based. This was 15 years after the War; we got a lot of not-particularly-friendly looks.

We had an interesting short visit to Frankfurt a year ago. One thing we discovered, at the Chabad House nobody spoke German! Hebrew, Russian and English.

In order to get into the Jewish Center, which was surrounded by a huge electronic iron gate, we had to speak Hebrew.
