Finally, Millerntor-Station, home of FC St. Pauli. When they had their old floodlight, I didn't have to switch on the kitchen lights. The bunker is from the last war; these bunkers are popular with music groups for practice sessions, since they are completely soundproof.

That's it, I hope you enjoyed the tour

Thank you for the tour! Nice to see, that our trip, that did not happen still inspires people all over the world!

We also went for a walk around our closest town. We have lived here five years and this was the first time that we had ventured down part of this river. This is the Weaver Navigation, in Northwich and (after the white swing bridge), Acton Bridge.

It's just past 4 pm here, so a little early for my beer, but don't have to wait too long anymore 🍻

I took a 20 km bicycle ride through the area and just took some shots of what caught my eye. I only had one photo planned before and I'll start with that:

We didn't meet in Tilburg, but at least I got to the Tilburgbaan 😁

Wauw! That only a two hour cycletrip from Tilburg " The Town " . 

Dutch /Belgian Border will open 15 June so I will cycle to Brecht one day!

Yesterday I prepared for diving , filling bottles, cleaning regulators and bringing them to the shop to O2 -service my deco-stage.  When the weather is good, we will sail to England 21 Juni, but stopping before reaching territorial waters. So I did not make any pictures with the Leica's.

Lovely series of images, what an interesting walk.  How did you manage to post so many images here though?

OK, I have edited about 40 pics down to about 10.I hope that is not considered excessive. It seems my day/life revolves around my dog Jupiter, so he stars in my selection.

A lovely slice of life from St Kilda(?), John, and wonderful to see Jupiter again.  It sounds like he's calming down a bit now and his markings seem more prominent and impressive than they might have been in 2017.  

I hope you're all in good health and things are getting back to normal after the pandemic and those terrible forest fires.

Pete.

Hi Pete, things are OK here, relatively speaking. I believe things are much worse in your neck of the woods. I hope you are managing fine. My pics are all within 5 min walk from home. ie. Sandringham. I am not really allowed to venture further for some idiotic reason. All my neighbours are 'social police' and insist I stay close. I have been amusing myself by scanning 15,000 slides from my past life. Terrifying to relives one's life actually. I can now see how I began.

Apologies guys, I had to help our daughter build a foundation for a deck today. So no time until now to process some more photo's

Starting with 35 mm

Entrance to Fort 's Gravenwezel, a pre WW1 fort of the outer defense ring of Antwerp. It's now a bat resort and cannot be entered (and some summer houses are built on top, hence the tight framing)

A little further in the woods there's a deserted WW2 bubker, there's no road or path to it, so not a lot of people know about it

And I had my tripod with me, so here's a shot from inside the bunker, for something that's open I'm amazed the graffiti artists haven't found it yet

erl, lovely dog, seems quite energetic and your lunch sounds mouth watering

StS, the tunnel shot is amazing, the photo's around town are nice and give quite a different view on Hamburg from what I had imagined

andybarton, great walk with nice bridges, but the rusty boat beats them all "rust is art"

Paulus, I hope you have a great and safe diving trip later this month

And if you want a house on a cliff there are only very limited possibilities near where I live, but they do exist 🙃

Well, I thought I show some stuff normally not seen in tourbooks and St. Pauli is sort of an outlier in a conservative city of traders. If you can tolerate it's sometimes weird sides, it is a nice place to live, though.

That's all from me guys, all taken on my 20 km bicycle ride through the area. It was fun, incl. seeing what others produced on the same day. I hope one day we will all meet "in the real" when this pandemic situation is under control

Saturday was mostly spent putting up new fences in the garden, to keep the dogs out of the veggies. But I managed to get a few shots.

First use of my new Macro-Elmar showing that not everyone was working hard
