If you're going to Stuttgart, be sure to wear some flowers in your hair

This will be the last post about my city and/or my hikes for I while, I promise. But today my roomie has joined for the walk. He saw the pictures I had taken yesterday, and he felt like walking with me today. He got infected, he already told me to join me again tomorrow. So today it wasn't my regular walk again, we went to the Bismarck Tower and a little bit further to a park that we've usually been visiting by bus.

Yesterday when I arrived at the Bismarck Tower I suddenly had a feeling like being in San Francisco. It reminded me very much. But I didn't tell anybody about that feeling. However, Jimmi wrote in a comment that it reminds him little bit of San Francisco. That made two of us. Funnily enough, when Sven arrived up there, he said, "well, this is a little bit like San Francisco." So, no doubt about that anymore. This is him and me in front of the tower. This was taken by autotimer. It actually consists of two pictures put together (bottom half and top half).


Then we jumped into our time machine and went back some years. We arrived at a nostalgic fair. It was very crowded and many children were running around. Strangely enough, there's no child on this picture.


Here's another part of the park. Please mind the horse, it's the icon of my city.


Well, here's the icon of Stuttgart. But you already knew that. This emblem is familiar to you, it's also on the hood of your Porsche, because Porsche is from Stuttgart. What? You don't have a Porsche? Well, ok, your Mercedes is from Stuttgart as well.


Ok, back to the park. Each year they have hundrets of different dalia. I like them very much, they're colorful and just nice. My roomie and I enjoy them every year. It's like a jungle of flowers.


Those are really high. I'm 6'0", but some are even higher.


In this park there's also this funny tower. It looks like a double helix.

Hallo Rian!
Du bist ja ein wunderbarer Künstler mit dem Fotoapparat! Gratuliere!
Ich war schon einmal in Karlsruhe, aber leider noch nicht in Stuttgart... Schön, dass Du auch Deine Stadt zeigst! Bin wirklich entzückt!
Those pics in the parc with the so very colourful flowers are magnificent! Thanks a lot! :-)
