art...

We went to K21 and saw "Big Picture" a really great exhibition, but not that great as Nam June Paik,

I liked most this two pieces of art .. the combination of painting and moving pictures by Zilla Leutenegger was something I haven't seen before and I was fascinated by it somehow. And yeah I know the second one is again Asian, but what can I say, we just got a different view on it... knowing the history, but after all it was a Spanish artist ;)

Recently in my life..

Friends from Amsterdam came over.... weather was great, wow.. could not believe it, 29°C and bright sunshine... we spent the whole weekend outside in outdoor museum and inside museum....

Night out with the girls

Yeah, yeah met my friends tonight, had a great time with the girls. Lots of things to discuss coz we could not met for so long... everyone is fine and everyone wants to meet again next week!!!! Great! I am so happy about it!!!
We had some nice tapas at a Spanish bodega in Duisburg! Since the weather turned well tonight, we could sit outside at the waterfront at the inner harbor.

But.., since the taste was not soo Spanish as we had expected, it will be next time Japanese food for sure!!!

On my way back home I saw Duisburg's landmark again. I remember seeing it from a distance in a sleepless night. It is still the same, so green.

Picture taken frommy car.....no, not while driving...

A knight to remember

well, after all I think it is a knight, but everytime I pass by I wonder if someone will ever take care of him...

Brussels... again...

Belgium is special! Well, after all for me! I really like to travel there. I like the food. I love the possibilities to see all the fantastic museums and I love the Art Nouveau houses. We had a nice time over there. This time celebrating my mother's birthday at a nice Belgian restaurant and of course some sightseeing! We bought some chocolates, too, of course! Funny my mother said first she will not buy any. Hahahahaha.... What can I say - she could not resist!

Newly renovated Atomium. Still like something out of space. Imagine how the people felt looking at it in 1958!

Simply fantastic!
