Views from a hospital floor....

I wanted to take some Autumn ones before it fully fades. If you look closely, it isn't all sky in the background, but the vague outlines of some mountains, and there is a tiny white speck. It snowed up there yesterday... And yeah the weather was lousy.






Peter wanted to be out a bit in his wheelchair, but this is the only decent view up there, the back of the Schloßberg. There used to be a fortress on it, but Napoleon razed it.... and the only thing left is the bell tower, and the citizens had to pay ransom for it so that he would at least THAT left standing....






The view from the glassed in elevator coming up. Which always gives me some vertigo... Note the Art Deco facade on the left. Inside it is modern, but this huge complex is an ongoing project, with the most amazing mix of architecture. The 'Help' sign was part of a huge campaign to raise some outside money, seemingly, and the 'Thank you' means they reached their goal.. The hold open seminars and lectures. I loved the one on 'What You Always Wanted to Know About Sex' run by the gynocolical dept. (smile)

Tja, gloomy day, but interesting vistas. It's apropos nothing, really... Grey makes most people glum, I guess.
