Did I cheat or am I still loyal?


One of my favorite places to have coffee and a sandwhich is Vurma. It was one of the first coffee shops I was introduced to. There is one by my previous flat which is the one I frequented until now. There's a second location close by my new flat. I felt conflicted going to this "other" Vurma as I was a loyal customer of the other one but convenience won out. I don't think I cheated on the original Vurma by going to the closer Vurma do you? It's the same owner, same menu... See what stupid things I think about?

Cracks me up everytime



I know this is sophomoric humor but I always crack a smile whenever I see one of these signs. It's means speed bump. This one is for you Tom.

Fall as arrived





It's fall now. Nice days for the most part. Have even broken out the boots.

Lunch at Rosendahl's





Went to have lunch at Rosendahl's which is a lovely garden both flowers and veggies. You clip the flowers and/or vegetables you want and pay for them when you leave. The food was great. It was a nice afternoon. Here are samples of the flowers that are there for the taking.

The front of my building


This is the entrance to my building but you can see some steps going down which go down six flights of stairs to a street below. That's where my laundry room is so one way trip to the washer and dryer is 10 flights total x at least four trips. I get a good leg workout on laundry day. It's nice at night after 9:00 pm there are iron gates that are locked so random people can't hang out in the stairwell. Extra security. :)

Herding a bunch of kids


It is always fun to watch when teachers take their classroom on a field trip via subway. In this case there were about 20 kids with two teachers. The teachers are constantly counting and the kids are just constant movement making it a challenge.
No such thing as school buses? Come to think of it, I've not seen one here.
