Paws Up for Treats in Cork

I think there might have been something special in that paper bag and that husky wanted it. 🙂

Careful on a bike

Weaving in and out between people walking along a pedestrianised street in Malaga, this delivery guy made good pace, without upsetting many people, thankfully.

Steam from the Brewery

Steam rising from the Heineken brewery in Blackpool is a common enough sight, with the accompanying smell familiar to anyone who lives near a brewery.

I visited the Igreja Paroquial da Graça (Church of Our Lady of Grace) in Lisbon early one morning. There’s a beautiful view of the city, but if you look behind and around you’ll find these lovely cobbles. In the early morning, the houses opposite cast a shadow on the street and on the wall of the church, and I loved it.

The source of inspiration

A sticker on a poll shows a banana, a black and white design and the phrase, "... AND PROTECT US ALL FROM THE WIKDEDNESS OF THE LACK OF INSPIRATION"

Sometimes it’s the simple things that inspire us, like a banana. And a yellow roadside bollard in the distance.

Red 6

The lovely deep red of a house with the number 6 on it's door. Two windows can partially be seen above and to the right of the door.

No 6 in Kinsale recently. I loved the red colour and the contrasting white/cream door and windows.

The view from St. Peters in Munich

The view from St. Peter's Church in Munich. You can see the roofs of buildings, and the gothic church, Frauenkirche.

St. Peter’s Church, or Alter Peter, in Munich is the tallest building in the vicinity. Local regulations prohibited building taller buildings except for a few years a while back when ugly glass office blocks were built a few kilometres away. That’s the Frauenkirche, a large gothic church in the middle distance.

So, you get a great view of the city, and it was nice to go up there to wait for the sunset. Unfortunately, the sky was mostly clear so the eventual sunset wasn’t that amazing but I loved seeing the city from this vantage point.

Beware, it takes 4 minutes to walk down. I didn’t record how long to get up. My legs were like jelly afterwards!

Cobblestone Streets

Cobblestone streets in Porto, Portugal.

In Cork, they’d be dug up and half the street surface replaced with tarmac.
