From the Archives - Under Renovation

From time to time I am going to post a picture from our travel albums.

Today's photo was taken in January 2004 in Bratislava, Slovakia when The Hotel Danube foyer was being renovated.

Out and about

The temperature in Bratislava yesterday reached 30c and there were people out and about everywhere.

Lots of folk were out walking

Even the clergy took time out for a Sunday stroll

The Main Square is a good place to rest one's feet

or check out one's souvenirs

People kept getting in the way of my door photos

I just had to include people in my door photos

Couldn't eat it

Lunch was included in our trip to Bratislava today.

Neither Jennifer or I could eat the entree, "Cheese Roll", that consisted of a slice of rolled up tasty cheese filled with a cream cheese mixture and sprinkled with parsley. It was just too rich.

Thankfully the schnitzel we had for a main course was fresh and tasty.

Cold memories

7 July 2013

Tomorrow I am visiting Bratislava in Slovakia. Last time I visited this beautiful little city was in January several years ago; it was perishingly cold, the city was covered in snow and the river was frozen over.  The forecast for tomorrow is 29c.

I wonder if I will recognise these places.

 

I won't be wearing a hat, coat and boots tomorrow!

Resting on the job?
