Hello family and friends,
It's been a hot minute since I updated you all on my "walkabout". A few days in Amsterdam isn't good for the memory cells but I digress....
I hung out in Amsterdam for a few days and although they are famed for their Red Light District, Canals and various Museums, I found there to be an absolute overload of bicycles. So much so that they have a separate lane for them in addition to car-lanes and sidewalks; go figure. Not being used to this phenomenon, I almost got "picked for six" a few times by an innocent bicyclist for simply not paying attention...
Bikes...
And more bikes...
Prost (cheers)...
From Amsterdam I went to Hamburg (Altona) to visit my good friend Joern. It was a good opportunity for some "down time" given my hectic schedule up to this point...
The symbol of Altona; 2 horsemen fighting over a fish or perhaps a Tuna-fish? Interesante...
Hamburg Harbor at Sunset
Me at the Hamburg Harbor. It kind of looks like the shipyard in Oakland; maybe I really haven't left the Bay....
Cologne for a few days: Famous Hohenzollern Bridge
Cologne Cathedral
Inside the Cologne Cathedral
Random Street Art
Quite the Disco-Ball (as the Autumn Leaves Turn)
I Love my Street-Art...
