The Cool Donuts

A place around Thomastown



My friend enthusiastically taking me keep going, indeed tired enough to reach this area, a donut place that's worth a try.


A place that looks attractive with a maroon brick wall motifs, donuts are laid out neatly. Believe me, I assure you they have a special recipe.


Not anything else I can do, in addition to the tempting aroma and flavor.

Ugly Winter of Melbourne

Temperatures around 13-14 and a worse night 6-7 degrees



We are heading in the same direction, and rushed as if to fight the cold weather, especially the rain makes it much worse. This is winter in the south of down under, it feels like immediately ran away.


Long queues to our city transportation. Home.


Imagining have arrived home, as many faces around me, shivering with the wind that sweeps the face, imagine the pleasure of a cup of hot coffee and a piece of chocolate brownies.

Twin rainbow over the Art Gallery of NSW

Rare phenomenon in Australia in mid-June



Lucky we get to this moment, when we almost got to the building, a rainbow on it.

Rainbow decorate the skyline of Sydney, and appear to be different, when the rainbow looks stacked, although the next over looks rather dim.

I soon find references about this phenomenon, before uploading them to social media. The second rainbow is actually the opposite of the first rainbow like a mirror image, so all I got.

A day in Brugge

The town is also known for its canals



Beautiful, so that we feel, perhaps more beautiful than any other city in the country. There is a different feeling, a romantic.


Different atmosphere, sauntering in De Markt Square, cobbled streets, like a medieval small quiet town. Classic building with gothic style in a modern environment.


Do not forget to stop at the small cafés, enjoying some cake and a cup of coffee, in the tranquility away from the noise.

Diana Memorial Walk

Circular walking trail dedicated to the memory of Diana, Princess of Wales



A walk approximately 7 mile, thus told, starting from Kensington Gardens, Hyde Park, Green Park and St. James's Park in London, here we are, enjoying well-manicured gardens, the air was cool though friendly enough.

A sign to recall a famous princess in England, immediately imagined about the elegant princess, unforgettable smile. At that moment I remembered a song from Elton John, the singer who made the song to honor, at the time of her funeral, "Good bye England` Rose".


I touch the aluminum plaque, admiring a heraldic etched in the center, a rose, a story that makes a lot of charm and at the same time sadness.

Interesting little town, even though they had entered the summer, I think the air is still cool enough.

Around the Festival Mundial

Station building which has stood since 1863



People are crowding around the stage, around the station, waiting for a famous (2 days) music concert at the end of June, Festival Mundial.

Interesting to look around the arena, in the area of the station, townspeople say 'spoorzone', an area which continues to be maintained and built continuously, and support the life of the city.


They care about this town, in the vicinity there are apartments, shopping centers, and office buildings.

Jazz aus Bielefeld

From a height of about 180 m performing a castle, equipped with 60 m high tower, became an icon of Bielefeld.


Maybe you just know Berlin, Cologne or Münich, but try to this place, a music performance are worth a visit, and the crowd kept clapping, giving appreciation.


Hear the music of The Beatles oldies, "I Feel Fine", they are so excited, in a thick jazz chant.
