I’m shopping in the rain
I’m shopping in the rain, just shopping in the rain,
what a glorious feeling, I’m happy again!
Well, I hope she got something nice in H&M.

The Cork Pride Flag
One of the (many) highlights of the Cork Pride parade is the massive rainbow flag that accompanies the marchers through the city. It was unfurled on Grand Parade where a jubilant crowd carried it and waved it in preparation for the trip around the city. I noticed a bump in the middle, and saw the reason underneath. 🙂

Watching the Dog Walking

80th anniversary of Warsaw Uprising
Young men climbed on a public toilet in the centre of Warsaw this afternoon to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the Warsaw Uprising.
At 5pm, sirens rang out and suddenly red flares were lit as a large cargo plane flew overhead. Smoke from the flares filled the air, and it got noticeably cooler as the sun was temporarily blocked.
The flares and smoke cleared within minutes, and a commanding voice in Polish continued to talk to the massive crowd.
Earlier in the day, we observed a simple military service. Two elderly people were there, and it’s obviously about the Uprising, but if anyone recognises them, I’d love to know more.
This episode of Dan Snow’s History Hits podcast does a great job covering what happened when Poles rose up against heir Nazi occupiers 80 years ago today. I found a Reddit thread about it too.

Just dog walking
Sometimes a photo is just what it appears, a walk enjoyed by human and dog alike, in Amsterdam earlier this year.

A face in the crowd on a dull day
It was a chilly March afternoon in Cork. Some were wrapped up tight against the cold, while it didn’t bother others. Look out the window now and enjoy the heat of July!

A chat on the phone
A woman relaxing on a bench outside a bookshop in Amsterdam while talking on her phone. I guess she was about to order something to eat, if that’s a menu in front of her.
