Yesterday there was april weather in Dortmund. In German we say “April, April, er macht was er will” (April, April, it does what it wants to do).

Today during lunch break I was trying to take pictures of butterflies. Only one let me take a picture, I guess its name is Speckled Wood (Waldbrettspiel, Laubfalter).

I’ve been a bit knocked out yesterday, but nevertheless the weekend was very nice, Music on Friday and Saturday and on Sunday a small bike tour into the east of Dortmund, chilling out in Westpark and having a dinner made by fellow couchsurfing friends 🙂

The weekend was quite busy, joining the Session at Youngster’s Point, accompanying someone nice in Dortmund (including Uni flea market), a very nice party and in the end a meeting in Tremoniapark. 🙂

It’s spring 🙂 I would have loved to put up pictures of butterflies but unfortunately the little fellows have been to busy today to pose for my camera, so it’s flowers instead. I’ve been at Nordstadt, An der Palmweide, in Technologiepark and Dorstfeld in Dortmund and at Zollverein in Essen that day.

Yesterday I tried to find the building of the former Museum Ostwall, located at said thoroughfare. I had to learn I was mistaken about its position all the time, I mistook a school building for it and yesterday even went into the secretary office of Stadtgymnasium to ask about it. But finally I found the building, but unfortunately I was one month late to see the latest (or final?) exhibition, which was closed end of January.
The future of the site is still subject to political discussions, see the page of a citizen’s group (in German) for more information.
Below are some pictures I took that day in the area.
