A Little Bit of Germany

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think the flowers here have influenced me forever. Lined up on the market streets, crowding in the windows sills, hanging over the edges of window baskets-pinks and greens- it's incredibly charming.  Germans have certainly perfected flowers.

And shrubs.

Perfectly trimmed in the tiniest yards you could ever imagine.

 

 

Candles are a part of every day use here.

Real candles.

In the middle of the day!

 

They're usually set in large class votives about a foot high and you see them  in store windows and restaurants, and outside pharmacy doors and shops.

Sometimes a single pillar candle in a 3 foot high glass lantern.

It's really lovely.

 

I wish I had more photos to share.

But I don't. :)

 Maybe next time.
