Where we live ...

Took a few photos back in the autumn around our neighbourhood.

First, lets imagine you take the tram to our stop:


Then you would walk here and go in through the entrance under the "Inlingua" sign, just past the bakery:


Then into the courtyard out the back (told you it was autumn), and to the back door:


And here's the front. Our place is the two windows you can see on the ground floor:


But enough of that ... lets look around. This is the closest shop to our flat. Its a book shop catering to a particular audience:


In fact, "Glockenbachviertel" (the name of our area) is the gay quarter of Munich. Here's one of the local bars:


There's a church nearby (bloody bells!) with a really old cemetery:



Here's one of our favourite cafes, tiny, but really good for breakfast. Tabula Rasa:


Nothing like a good chocolate shop nearby! And its special: Australian Pralines!


For those who have visited me, you probably know this local bar/restaurant:


This is one of the nicer buildings around:


So there you have it ... the neighbourhood.
