2016-07-11 NETHERLANDS AND THE WINDMILLS II

The twilight at Veluwemeer shows you the sea, sinking sun with blue sky and some slow turning windmills and silence except a bit noise from some boats which come along the sea lanes. For a house boat captain, the evening is the time to look after a parking slot in one of the harbors at Harderwijk or Elburg to get a place to anchor the boat and prepare for the night.

2016-07-10 GREEN HILLS IN TYROL

This should be on the wishlist of every cow, fresh, green and juicy grass. Here the environment is in perfect shape and is the source of organic milk and cheese. The whole valley looks like this and is surrounded and protected by high mountains which make sure that the grassy hills get enough rain for growing.

Tradition is firmly grounded in the minds of the Indians. The women are mostly clothed with colorful and wide dresses, hair is formed in traditional ways and often bedecked with appropriate jewelry. But between the traditions the smartphone has established its status of the most used item.

2016-07-05 COOL TAXIS

For the competition “Which city has the coolest taxis?” Hong Kong will get a place at the top. They have an impressive chrome grille and the seats inside look like living room chairs. Sometimes you will see some curtains at the windows. For a passenger the ride is a real joy. 🙂

2016-07-04 THE WALK OF THE INDIANS

This is the path you have to follow to arrive at the Lotus temple in New Delhi. It’s an endless coming and going, before you enter the temple you have to pull off your shoes and entrance is only allowed in small groups. Within the temple there is absolute silence and a meditative atmosphere.

2016-07-02 HONG KONG BUILDING WITH BALCONIES

With limited space balconies are some kind of luxury for buildings in Hong Kong. You don’t see them very often, they make the constructions more expensive and time consuming. The same will be true with the prices of those apartments.
