TimeOut

Dear PuristS
As much as I enjoy reading and most of all
looking at your travelogue I wish that you'll enjoy mine.
Last month I visited 3 countries 2 capital and one ancient city

Hoping that this will not be boring I present you
Vienna
Bratislava &
York

Sincerely
Damian

Arrival

Of course clocks and watches ... talking about gold hands ....

In love or what?

The biiiig Reverso

Some heavy stuff

My long lasting wish

For all shoe lovers a place to see

I must admit that when I saw all this great timepieces with just few minutes apart
ther is something special in Lange in flesh .... they are perfect

Pastry shop open for public to admire work

Voila it is ready

Gorgeous

For all tobacco lovers

Cafe Central with excellent Kaiserschmarn

and again for the ending unusual clock

Arrival and refreshment for body and soul

Local meal ... special cheese (Brinza) with ham squares and micro dumplings

Man at work aka Cumil

Papparazzi

The Roland

Old city

New city

Another beauty

He was here also

Arrival in  Manchester

then train and York ... facilities when I had some business to attend

The food

and refreshment for body and soul again .... when you are in Rome .... go to pub ...

Classic atmosphere

live music

and ale you must try ...

Some ruins of catholic abbey

Part of old city walls since Roman times and York Minster

Place to eat

York Minster ... impressive ....

as much as this

English style

English style part 2

Street performance

and yes the tea is just wow .... in my country if you try to put milk in tea it will turn out crap  ... but here what I can say
I had 4 - 5 cups every day

English style part 3

City walls more that 3 km long

Stairway to broken neck :0) .... descent from walls to street ...

Again something to satisfy Purist soul

The nature is great

and to end my travelogue in proper way

I say farewell until next time .....

Yours
Damian

Thank you for the beautiful photos. I haven't been to Bratislava, looks like a charming picturesque city worth checking out.

Thanks for the tour!

Yes the old part of city is cute
it is worth visiting

Sincerely
Damian

It's so wonderful to travel along with you virtually!  That cheese/dumpling/ham dish in Bratislava looked tasty!  I'd like to check that out!  I also loved your photos of the English architecture you encountered.  It seems you had a fun and festive trip!

Cheers,
Daos

I'm very pleased that you liked my post.
The Bryndzove halusky (original name of dish)
are tasty and I'll tell you the secret after one plate
you don't feel hunger, tired or cold any more as I was
before eating it :0)

and few more pictures from Bratislava for you

in pittoresque pub there were story of local "Robin Hood"

the middle European Medieval style

and a nice little clock museum also just across the street to ....

..... Coronation Cathedral of Bratislava

Bratislava looks amazing.  I'd love to visit -- especially because of the Bond connection (in The Living Daylights James Bond goes to Bratislava to find a suspected KGB assassin).

Thanks again for the lovely photos!

*humming James Bond theme song*
Daos

Living daylights was yesterday on our local TV network
and I watched it and after singing A-HA :0)
Cheers

for bringing back such fond memories of Vienna and York.  Loved those two places when I was there, and longing to go back.  Your great photos makes me want to go back that much more. Also makes me hungry.  Thanks again

Cheers, Frederick

I can only say it with picture ...
welcome back again to these great cities

Best
Damian

thanks for taking me along...

looks like a great trip...

what did you like most?

lot to see in not so much time
+ different business obligations to attend
Although I have been in Vienna before and never in York nor Bratislava
I must say that I like Vienna best
Sincerely
Damian

Always a pleasure to read you, my friend.

There is ALWAYS something magic, in your reports.

The pics are great, too.

Damn, I have so many places to go!

And Paris, when did you plan to go?



Best, my friend.

Nicolas

my friend
and the Paris is first next trip ;0)
as far as the magic is in question
not sure if this is result of all the beasts I encountered

or the substances that I brought home
:0)

Sincerely yours
Damian

Thanks Damian for sharing pics of your travels to Vienna, Bratislava and York.  Vienna is one of my favorite cities and I've visited most of the places in your post and it brought back fond memories.
Isn't the cafes and desserts in Vienna spectacular?

Regards,
ED-209

but I must be honest and confess that I like
Italian desserts more
All the best
Damian
