"Love of beauty is taste. The creation of beauty is art."Ralph Waldo Emerson
On Sunday, we were able to be present for the opening of the intercultural days of Dresden complete with traditional russian, african, indian, polish (...) folk dances and music... We walked over the AlbertbrĂĽcke from which we (more or less) had the above view ( I stole this picture from the internet...) to the Rathaus.
Yesterday in the early afternoon I sat with my German best friend Saskia at the Altmarkt (old market) drinking a cup of coffee and eating "Kräppelchen" from the fall market and several tour buses, school classes, and gray-haired couples in matching windbreakers with cameras passed by.
Although we are slowly making ourselves at home and are able to get around most everywhere with the trains, trams, buses, we have not yet lost that sense of awe of all of this wonderful city has to offer. I hope it continues to surprise and astound us daily ...
