G is for Green

I am up to the letter G now and thought I would choose green as I like it as a colour and there is usually lots of green around. The first photo is Alessio in the Park in Green, yes it is called that! The hotel is in Einsiedeln, looking at the Monastery, more wall art from the Rote Fabrik and finally a boat in on the Limmat in Zurich.

Enjoy the weekend!

Photo of the Week - Enter if you dare!

This was taken in the restaurant Jschalp at the middle station on Jakobshorn in Davos, where I went for the weekend with Aimee. It is the entrance for the toilets and I found it quite amusing! It was a fun weekend with huge amounts of snow, another post to come soon.

Rote Fabrik

On my way into Zurich with the Bus I always pass the Rote Fabrik (Red Factory) and I kept on meaning one day to walk around to see all the wall art. Finally in the last weekend of November Alessio and I went for a few hours. Last year saw its 30 years anniversary, the building itself was an old mill and is now an cultural centre.

Lot of fascinating pictures of on the walls to look at, and playground to keep the kids happy. In summer you can sit outside and enjoy the lake, sipping a cuppuccino or beer.






I like this one with the rocket blasting off!
There are also lots of cultural events going on like exhibitions, theatre, music bands and discussions. I have been a couple of times to see bands play.
Check out the trainers hanging!

Tall chimney which you do not often see anymore.
Well worth for a walk around and, maybe there is something on you like too, if not then stop for a drink!

Edinburgh Words

While in Scotland over the Christmas period I spent the day in Edinburgh, I always like to come for the day. I was lucky because it was one of the few days where it was actually sunny! While walking around I saw lots of old signs, shop names and other bits and bobs. I thought it would be a fun post, the normal sights will be in another post later on in January.

I do like the some of the pub names and the last photo was at the Christmas market I stopped for a glüewein and saw the really cute sign. I wished I had eaten one of though toasties as I was seriously hungry.
