"All experience is an arch to build upon."
~Henry Brooks Adam
"I'm coming, I'm coming," I would frequently call out as the Gardener and
the others we were with would look back to find me. I do lag behind when we
are touring somewhere because little scenes, potential photos, call out to me,
compelling me to stop and quickly grab a photo.
I can't help myself.
I am drawn to arches, windows, flowers, bicycles … and more!
These posted here were all in the center of Munich, on a rainy day.
Buildings soold they could tell many stories. And all filled with arches.
The Gardener recognized this immediately as where Hitler
gave a speech or two or three in the city square.
And, a coffee house, Cafe Tambosi, where Mozart hung out.
That was awhile ago! It's Munich's oldest coffee house.
I would be lagging behind too! ~smile! You have captured the elegance of Munich! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI would love to go there some day, I hear it is the most wonderful place to visit, the sights are amazing, thanks for the post, come on over for a visit..
ReplyDeleteI tend to lag behind too, enjoying everything around me. Wonderful photos and arches shared Dotsie. Thankfully no McDonald's arch! LOL
ReplyDeleteSo much to see! Interesting about the arches. I wonder what was the influencing culture on the architects?
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing.

I love beautiful architecture, too--all photo worthy for sure! And the history--Mozart, oh my!
ReplyDeleteAnd do the grandgirlies have anything from Christine Leder Mode für Kinder? With my short legs, I'd have been on a full gallop. Getting caught up on your rest? I hope so!
ReplyDeleteSuch stunning photos, Dotsie! I am glad that you lagged a bit to take these. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous trip!
ReplyDeleteThese are absolutely awesome pictures. I am always 10 steps behind. and annoying everyone. So be it...later we are all happy to see our experiences captured!

ReplyDeleteI work for an elderly man and his 18 year old granddaughter is here from Munich Germany
she had been to Miami Beach Florida for 2 weeks to work for an internship
She told me the shopping in Munich is great and the public transportation is great also compared to the mid west
These are beautiful. You have such a wonderful eye for capturing the 'right' photo. Especially love the arches in the first two. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful views you have captured. I'm so glad you lagged behind to catch these moments.
ReplyDeleteWow what a beautiful places. Great job.
ReplyDeleteThings to do in NYC
I can only dream of such intriguing places to visit. I would definitely lag behind like you!
ReplyDeleteI always love your photos. You record exactly the things I want to see!
ReplyDeleteAh Mozart, one of my very favorite composers! Did you have coffee there? Munich seems to have a bit of a middle eastern flair to its architecture, which I didn't expect at all -- very interesting. I would love to go to Germany, especially the Bavarian region. It looks like you really had an interesting trip, Dotsie!
