Anything but blue ...

The Blue Mosque ... 

Parisians favourite fixation

Les ponts sur la rivière Siene

(The Bridges over the river Siene)

Any Parisian can spend hours proudly detailing the intricate designs on the different Parisian bridges over the river Siene. 

Immortal warrior - Tomb of the unknown soldier

... and someday the killings will end

On either sides.

Of innocent civilians.

Of guiltless soldiers who act selflessly to restore peace.

The ruthless terrorists and the barbarous soldiers can go to hell.

Candle light demonstrations by Palestinian sympathisers against 'Israeli aggression in Gaza' at Museumplein Amsterdam:

I give you best price, $34.50

Take it and go.

Maybe u no buy purse for $34.50.

U go away, u see something, u no buy, u come back, u say 'hey! I want to buy purse for $34.50'.

 I say 'noooooooo, price go up, maybe $40'. 

Be strong enough. Do the right thing.

U save 50 cents here, maybe u go souwhere else n save another 50 cents.

 U have 1 dollar, then u take ur dollar to the dollar store u buy sumthing else.

Siene - What a Scene

Graveyard Shift

From one continent to another

No, I did not embrace Islam - I just loved such these caps  so much that I could not resist myself from buying 4 of them during my 5 day trip to Turkey.

Behind me is the the Bosphorus bridge. I am in Ortakoy which is in the European part of Istanbul. On the other side of the bridge is Uskudar which is in the Asian part of the city. 

The Bosphorus bridge is one of the two bridges connecting Europe to Asia in Turkey (and probably worldwide)

The play of the colour red everywhere also happens to be the 175th post of the blog.

Red, Red and more Red.
A long series of red window panes - all open completely.
The red T-Shirt of the passer-by.
