Tomorrow morning, no ungodly hours for once. Without a computer, with very limited internet (roaming is extremely expensive in the Western Balkans). Holidays!!!
Still waiting...More b&w for the weekend right... here.
I'll be away for a while, in the Balkans, going down memory lane, Albania, North Macedonia, Serbia, with a quick coffee in Greece. Greek coffee of course! Without computer. So, no black and white weekend next week for me. See ya in 2 weeks, I hope!
The Neustadt (German for new town) is a UNESCO World Heritage site, built by Germans late 19th, early 20th century. A mixture of various architectural styles. More info here.
19, the number of doors at the protestant St Paul church. Why 19? The church was built between 1892 and 1897, during German occupation. A door for each of the German army ranks, plus one for the emperor. Don't use the wrong one!
75 years Indian independence today. Thanks to this man, the venerable (=Mahatma) Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. This bronze statue by Fredda Brilliant is in Tavistock Square, London.
We're having a 3 days weekend, as catholic France celebrates the assumption of Mary next Monday. Many strasbourgeois will head to nearby protestant German state of Baden-Wuertemberg (just over the Rhine bridge). Shopping!
Well ok, the main purpose of any bridge is to allow passage over a place. Not this one. This bridge's main purpose is to serve as a tourist/photographer's highlight. One of the best places to view the Petite France area.
