I thought I'd post some pictures of what it looks like when I walk around all day.
I start at the lake and make my way down to a public garden. There are TONS of people (and they really are all eating ice cream). It reminds me of what 1953 might look like... women are dressed up, all the men are in suits, lots of babies, I saw a little girl with a hula hoop, you get the idea.
These are my views of the lake:
And here's the garden:
After the garden, I head back. Here are some photos of the city, and what it looks like on my walk to the hotel.All the streets are old, skinny, and curved (for the most part). See the green umbrella? That's where I bought THE sandwich. And the picture below it... I just wanted you to see how seriously they take their sweets. It's like an art form.
I made a cake that looked like the one in the picture. It was shaped like a plantation, though.
ReplyDeleteok, this is beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteThese pictures look like they could be from a picture on wikipedia or an add for Switzerland or something.
Glad to hear that things are getting better. Can't wait to see yall in november.(I'm actually already counting down the days)
Guys,
ReplyDeleteI can't help but see the contrast of the beautiful city with spacious parks with your wee hotel that appears to be making you cranky. I don't see many street people. Have you considered going homeless? The garbage from that bakery has got to be better than most dinners at my house.

It is beautiful there! While Ryan is at work, how about you just stay outside strolling the streets and around the lake instead of waiting for him in that small room! Problem solved. Love you! Carrie
ReplyDeleteMalinda, the town looks simply beautiful and so clean! So proud of you for being adventurous to go to a non-English country like that (I'm too chicken). I look forward to your blog every day at work; keep updating!
