I have heard and read many stories and gossips about Monaco and it is really nice. I took a bus tour where I could explore nearly the whole city, because it’s not really big. It has only 4.4 km land border and 4.1 kilometer sea border. It was the bluest sea I ever saw.
I had 2 hours time waiting for a meeting which location was a bit offside the city center. So I tried to do the best with my time and take photos 🙂 And I can tell you, in Rome the whole city is interesting, you can explore, look around and are fascinated nearly wherever you are.
Maybe it’s a special “luck” I have, but I cannot remember when I was in Salzburg where it was not raining. Neverthless I tried the best to get photos. My wife held the umbrella and I positioned at a stonewall on the Mönchsberg to get the shots of the city. Good that lens and camera were spray water protected. 🙂
With this view you have the sea on both sides, it is really cool driving around and have a look at the ocean, make a break and go down to the water. We were lucky, because we got a hotel room on the 25th floor which is great overlooking the hotel mile and the beaches.
I like modern portals and entrances of buildings which are illuminated by geometrical light sources. Mostly those buildings are from banks, insurance companies or federal institutions. It looks so cool when passing by and you are walking down nightly streets. This photo was taken in Kufstein, Tyrol.
High Lane Park is an atypical park, though you have some trees, plants and grasses you walk on an old roadbed which is restored. By the way you can have some drinks and snacks and have a wonderful view onto the streets of New York. For me one of the top attractions.
In Nice we decided to rent an electric car (Toyota) and drive along the coastal road and have a look at the nice villages there. We looked after a parking lot and took the way for pedestrians to get into the village. It was typical for southern France, nice restaurants, dimmed street lights and the cool breeze and smell of the sea while you sat down for dinner.
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.
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.
I think there is no city in the world which can compete with the differenct colors and light sources which shine in the streets of Tokyo. From street to street you get new impressions, Ginza, Shibuya, Roppongi an ever evolving sea of street lights.
