Spend one or two days strolling through the city to take photos

Bye, bye Germany # … for the next two weeks: I’ll be on vacation with strict internet interdiction. Will be a tourist exploring beaches and maybe a few hiking tracks in the next few days, so don’t expect to read anything here apart from what was scheduled already ;)
