It’s kind of beautiful to sit inside a bus and see a city from the windows. Yung Lean
The other day saw me taking the bus up to Cork city, it had been two years since something like this happened and it excited me more than a little. A bus ride always reminds me of travel and of course that is what has been missing in most of our lives and especially in mine. The unromantic reason for the journey was an hospital appointment, but I did try to look upon it as a little adventure, and yet I did not expect to feel so free and refreshed by walking through the city, it had not been my intention!
The colours on this cold by crisp January day were vivid, it pleased me very much. There have been colourful changes in Cork city, much more eat and drinking places outside, very continentalThis was the time of day when not that many people walked aroundThe river Lee and the quays never changing, always thereI came across some very contemporary architecture, that was interesting tooStriking colours and linesRiver Lee is also the homestead of the many gullsA photographic experiment with powerlines and church architectureReflections in the riverShadows
It was a journey of necessity, it turned into a pleasant and relaxing experience.
Thank you Eliza, yes two years is a long time, on the other hand time flies too fast so in a way it does not seem to be that long either, depending how we look at it I guess. Spring is on the way and I bought some seeds today π
poΓ«zie in beeld, prachtig!

It is very nice, the second largest city in Ireland but still relatively small and provincial. But even while I speak it is growing and growing.
