Walking with Locks of Love

We haven’t been consistent with sharing for Cee’s Which Way Photo Challenge, but we thought we would try to participate more often. For this week, we decided to use a photo from here in Frankfurt. This is the pedestrian bridge that takes you from Altenstadt (Old Town) Frankfurt into the suburb of Sachsenhausen. Sachsenhausen is home to some of the best local restaurants in town as well as a lot of lively pubs, at least from what we understand. The love locks on fences, like these on the bridge, are always intriguing wherever they are found and we definitely enjoyed seeing these. We have wondered over this bridge several times now and will enjoy crossing it to share a meal, perhaps even with one of the locals that we have met.

Daily Post Photo Challenge – Local

This week’s photo challenge of Local was an easy one for us considering our move into a new country and neighborhood. We have mentioned this place a couple of times already and the reason for that is that it has become our favorite local watering hole. In fact, one of the bartenders, Dadan, called his wife to get a list of sites that ended up helping us to find our new home. We have found the Alten Limpburg to be the perfect place to grab a pint and a glass of wine to unwind at the end of a long day.

Golden

Yellow invokes a feeling of warmth and comfort and it is definitely one of nature’s favorite hues. It feels sunny and happy and can brighten almost any day. For this week’s Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge – Yellow, we decided that the Palacio Portales in Cochabamba, Bolivia, best exemplified the feeling. Yellow is a bold color for a home, but sometimes it works perfectly, like in this case.
