I like to see other parts of the world that I might find myself in one of these days. I liked the main best, but was drawn to the narrow street one. I was in Lübeck last week and it was the same thing. Narrow streets. The well-to-do lived on the streets and the workers and craftsmen lived out back in the courts ... with even narrower passages from the streets to the courts. That was ok a couple of hundred years ago ... but try and get a fridge or a stove through those passages today ... :) Daniel On Sun, 23 Feb 2003, Nathan Wajsman (private) wrote: > Nothing special this week, just three snaps from a walk around the city. > First, a place called Helmhaus, part of the old city hall, today used > for exhibitions and such.
