Mainhattan
Frankfurt is less than 2 hours away. I quite often cross it by plane, train, etc, know the airport very well, but I've never actually visited it. Done now.
The skyline, mainly big international banks, dubbed Mainhattan, the Main being the river.

Frankfurt

The old HQ of the European Central Bank. The root of all evils, so they say... Specially true in the light of the latest CumEx files revelations. CumEx? Just google it.

Weekend in bianco e nero
Well, amici, I go to Italia quite often, since the early 80es actually. Culture, food, art de vivre, mamma mia! Si, I speaka the italiano, si signore!
Here a common scene in one of the few metros in Roma.
More b&w here.

Still summer...
Enjoying the last really hot summer days... We're losing 10-15 degrees C next week. Is it me, or did summer really fly??

St Paul's cathedral
Mdina, the old capital of Malta, 6 months ago. St Paul is believed to have been shipwrecked in Malta, and therefore founded the Church on the islands.

Summer docks
Summer docks. In what used to be the old port, every summer, the city transforms the place in front of the central library (building in the back) into a beach; sand, toys, paddle boats...
