  • Frühlingsmarkt / Pflanzenmarkt Dortmund, May 10, 2015

    Posted on Monday, 11.05.2015 07:50 by sebrem Comment

    Yesterday I took a walk through Dortmund, there was an artists’ market and a spring market in the city centre and a plant market in Westfalenpark. 🙂 The street art is from Weißenburger Straße.

    Google+ made another story, funny how they picked 18 of 154 pics, I had to take 90 for my public album 😉

  • Westfalenpark Dortmund, Mar 12, 2015

    Posted on Thursday, 12.03.2015 21:28 by sebrem Comment

    So today I took a day off and went to Westfalenpark to see the 100.000 crocus plants Fee ist mein Name and Dortmund überrascht Dich wrote about. And indeed they have been there! If you look closely you’ll also see some bumblebees buzzing in the flowers 🙂

  • Looking for snowdrops, Feb 15, 2015

    Posted on Sunday, 15.02.2015 21:05 by sebrem Comment

    Although in the end I forgot my “real” camera at home finally I could follow the plan I originally had for last weekend, finding snowdrops (nice German word “Schneeglöckchen”) to see how nature is “fighting” winter. I saw some in Westfalenpark, but most have been in Rombergpark. I should have remembered from last year ;).

    [alpine-phototile-for-picasa-and-google-plus src=”user_album” uid=”114159417905468681891″ ualb=”6116163164484259345″ imgl=”fancybox” style=”bookshelf” row=”3″ size=”400″ num=”9″ align=”center” max=”100″]

    Click on the photos to zoom, visit Picasa for full-size pics and location data and also if you don’t see any photos above because you’re viewing the post on tumblr and the photos are embedded via a WordPress widget.

    On Google+ there’s also an auto-generated “story” with different pictures from the set.

    Some pictures are also on Instagram:

    Yesterday I visited Westfalenpark Dortmund for Winterleuchten with a friend. I was not good at taking night-time pictures with my canon, next time I’ll bring a tripod 😉

    Posted on Sunday, 14.09.2014 00:00 by sebrem Comment

    So instead of going to Burg Altena again we decided to tour around in Dortmund. It’s hard to enumerate all the places we’ve seen today but I’ll try 😉

    Dortmunder U (Deep Love Festival), Dortmunder Kunstverein, Street Art Gallery 44309, Gelateria Angelo Losego, Black Plastic Vinyl Shop, Gedenkstätte Steinwache, Dortmund-Ems-Kanal, Fredenbaumpark, Gaststätte Schmiedingslust, Westfalenstadion, beer garden Rote Erde, pub Kumpel Erich, Westfalenpark, Florianturm. Here are some pictures:

    Posted on Wednesday, 20.08.2014 12:20 by sebrem Comment

    On Saturday I’ve been to Micro!Festival and from there with a small group at Lichterfest (festival of lights) in Westfalenpark. For € 10 you got some light installations and a fireworks. Would have been nice in a more romantic setting, but, alas, not this time 😉

  • Burg Altena / Westfalenpark Dortmund / Schloß Burg / Kanal, Jul 17-19, 2014

    Posted on Saturday, 19.07.2014 21:07 by sebrem Comment

    I did host Carmen from Spain a couple of days and she was very touristic, so I took two days off from work and we went to Burg Altena, Westfalenpark and Schloß Burg.

    This is Burg Altena, one hour from Dortmund by train (Picasa):

    [alpine-phototile-for-picasa-and-google-plus src=”user_album” uid=”114159417905468681891″ ualb=”6037481509357060289″ imgl=”fancybox” style=”bookshelf” row=”4″ size=”400″ num=”6″ align=”center” max=”100″]

    Then we went to Westfalenpark Dortmund and went for the tv tower (Picasa):

    [alpine-phototile-for-picasa-and-google-plus src=”user_album” uid=”114159417905468681891″ ualb=”6037482053762359889″ imgl=”fancybox” style=”bookshelf” row=”4″ size=”400″ num=”10″ align=”center” max=”100″]

    On the next morning we went to Solingen to visit Schloß Burg. On the way we passed the Schwebebahn in Wuppertal and also had the opportunity to use the ropeway up to the castle 🙂 On the way back we went for the full ride with the Schwebebahn from Wuppertal-Vohwinkel to Wuppertal-Oberbarmen (Picasa):

    [alpine-phototile-for-picasa-and-google-plus src=”user_album” uid=”114159417905468681891″ ualb=”6037489233852118273″ imgl=”fancybox” style=”bookshelf” row=”4″ size=”400″ num=”18″ align=”center” max=”100″]

    On her last day in Dortmund I took her to Dortmund-Ems-Kanal for a relaxing hour. We were sitting in the shadow of a tree, with the canal in our back and having a look at Deusen (Picasa):

    [alpine-phototile-for-picasa-and-google-plus src=”user_album” uid=”114159417905468681891″ ualb=”6038088954491112865″ imgl=”fancybox” style=”bookshelf” row=”4″ size=”400″ num=”6″ align=”center” max=”100″]
