Travelog post for: Bernd The Bread

Hi Mummy,
we took a walk in the city in Katja's lunch break. She told us that we would know the whole surroundings of Remscheid, but not the city itself.

The first photo was taken in a street close to my current home. All around are houses, built around the 1900's.



Here are allotment gardens. Katja told us that you can find lots of allotment gardens here because of the city's topography. You cannot build houses everywhere, but it's great for gardens.



In the background you can see Wuppertal.







We reached a housing area, a former working-class quarter. Some of the houses are really small (too small to my taste).

All around it is green.





Back in the city centre ... the city hall in the background.





In 30 minutes we'll have to return to Katja's workplace. That's not half as exhausting as walking with Katja ....



This is the water tower. The drinking water is pumped uphill from a dam in a valley. You can see the towers of the city hall and this water tower from everywhere around.



Than let's go back to work.

Bye
Bernd
