Karlsruhe , Germany
1. We took a very-late-night train from Offenburg and arrived at Karlsruhe early the next morning.
[показать]
2. After renting our car, the first place we toured was the famous castle.
[показать]
3. Then we had lunch at a downtown cafe.
[показать]
4. We visited a museum.
[показать]
5. And drove through a university.
[показать]
6. We then continued to tour some of the older parts of the city. Karlsruhe was founded only in 1715, so it doesn't have the quaint Medieval center that many German cities do, so "old" is a relative term.
[показать]
7. More older sections. We sat in this little park for a bit and watched the women walk by.
[показать]
8. Then drove around through some more quaint, old, inner city areas.
[показать]
9. The geometric patterns of some streets were wonderful!
[показать]
10. But all this driving around still made us hot - the heat wave continued! We went for a quick swim at another local pool, located in the shadow of a power plant.
[показать]
11. Afterward, I implored Hans and Frans to drive me through some of the industrial districts so I could get my fix. Reluctantly, they agreed. We drove by the port and saw kayakers kayaking amid the giant freight ships!
[показать]
12. Afterwards we drove around and saw some more industrial-commerical areas.
[показать]
13. And some more residential areas.
[показать]
14. I learned that Karlsruhe contained Germany's largest oil refinery - I soooo badly wanted to see it to get my industrial fix! Hans and Franz laughed, but drove me there anyway. Such complex brutality! I love it!
[показать]
15. They were tired of my industrial fixes, so afterwards we drove through some quaint neighborhods.
[показать]
16. And another one.
[показать]
17. We also drove through some forests surrounding the city.
[показать]
18. And back in the city, we saw some apartment blocks which almost appeared to be set amid a forest!
[показать]
19. Towards the end of the day we passed through some more areas where fields directly abutted the town.
[показать]
20. As did the industrial areas.
[показать]
21. We had an early dinner at the sidewalk cafe at the top of this shot.
[показать]
22. And retreated back to the center of town, where our hotel was. We went to a pub that night and got real drunk (again)!
[показать]
23. The next morning we drove through some outskirts of town. Unfortunately we didn't find the hills with vineyards we found in Offenburg.
[показать]
24. So we headed back toward town.
[показать]
25. I wasn't sure what this strange building was - a castle? Some old government building?
[показать]
26. At any rate, it was still hot so we decided to get some drinks at Wal-Mart.
[показать]
27. And got some gas.
[показать]
28. We drove past a university.
[показать]
29. And some more modern housing.
[показать]
30. The next day was Sunday, so we went to church here.
[показать]
31. Afterward I insisted on seeing some more industrial areas.
[показать]
32. But Hans and Franz wanted to head back to town.
[показать]
33. We passed through some residential areas.
[показать]
34. And saw some fairly large Schrebergarten.
[показать]
35. However, some of the apartment and townhouse blocks did have their own, English-style gardens in their backyards.
[показать]
36. And some of the Schrebergarten abutted much bigger "gardens!"
[показать]
37. This was a newer development which also had their own gardens as well as a nice, formal layout.
[показать]
38. But of course, back in the center of town, most people don't have a garden at all.
[показать]
39. I couldn't think of a good caption for this picture.
[показать]
40. But I got more of my big-industrial building fix with this picture!
[показать]
41. And this one, too!
[показать]
42. Late in the afternoon we took one last drive through some neighborhoods and had sauerkraut and bratwurst at a neighborhood restaurant.
