In the old East German times, I used to fly to Hamburg then drove up to Lubeck and cross the border there into East Germany. It was really strange, at the time like a time warp, going from the 1980's back in time to the 2nd world war years by just crossing the border.
Blimey John, sounds like you were some sort of spy!

myself and a couple of friends biked through northern Germany in the 1980s, through Hamburg, Bremen, then Lubeck to Keil, then across to Gedser in Denmark. You could see the towers on the East German border. Weird sight.
On the way back went to a seaside place called Travamunde, nice place.

I've also been once to Travamunde. It certainly was a weird experience, I used to drive to Rostock, where the East German fishing fleet was based for meeting there.
Crossing the border you hardly saw any cars, driving on deserted roads was really odd.
