The window.




















The small window got my attention when walking down one of the narrow little roads in the city centre.
Looks like a unique and cosy place to live for people who want to be close to most things.

The walls.

















This is what some of the walls look like in town.
Streetart.... layer upon layer? Or perhaps contemporary art?

Most places are closed.
The weather is unpredictable, so hopefully they will get some
sunshine too.

Drive carefully.



















Well done, to the person who came up with the idea to paint the boring parking area, and to add a warning written in dialect, saying that we have to be aware of all the cars so we don't bang in to them.
Too many car parks looks so depressing and dark, so this is a nice change.
