Der Palacio de San Telmo in Sevilla ist ein Prachtwerk der barocken Architektur. Benannt ist er nach San Telmo dem Schutzpatron der Seefahrer. Mit dem Bau wurde 1681 begonnen, 115 Jahre später war er fertig gestellt. Er diente bis 1849 als Universität für Seefahrer, damit die Seemacht Spanien mehr Männer zum amerikanischen Kontinent schicken konnte. 1849 zogen dann die Herzöge von Montensier in den Palast ein. Im Jahr 1897 wurde der Palast an das Erzbistum Sevilla vererbt. Seit 1989 dient der Palast als Sitz der andalusischen Regionalregierung.
The Palacio de San Telmo in Seville is a splendor of baroque architecture. It is named after San Telmo, the patron saint of sailors. Construction began in 1681 and was completed 115 years later. It served as a university for seafarers until 1849, so that the naval power Spain could send more men to the American continent. Then in 1849, the Dukes of Montensier moved into the palace. In 1897, the palace was bequeathed to the Archbishopric of Seville. Since 1989, the palace has served as the seat of the Andalusian regional government.
In 1742 the building was constructed as the Garrison Armoury capable of storing 10.000 stand of arms. In 1945 the Southern wings was constructed in the Garrison Theatre with seating for 320 - cloubling up as a Cinema for the troops stationed in Gibraltar.
Over the years parts of these buildings have been used as a Naafi shop,clubs,schools.Goverment departments, a resturant and night clubs. Part of the Northern Wings is the Gibraltar Bank whilst continuing function as the Inces Hall Theatre.
Th Anayet peak is an extinct volcano that is on the top of the Canal Roya Valley. This beautiful valley is in danger because the Aragón goverment want to use the covid european funds to expand the sky resorts that surround it. We hope our fight against this irrational project will stop the destruction of this impressive valley.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic the Danish goverment has declared a number of meassures - closing all schools for 14 days, cancelling large events, sending home most public servants etc.
I am OK, but as an elderly person I am advised to take care, so I will stay at home with Lene and the cats...

Starting on Nov. 12th, 2012, nobody is allowed to climb any glaciated mountain in Ecuador without hiring an accredited mountain guide.
This restriction was issued by Ecuadorian Goverment after the last fatal accidents that happened in 2012 in Illiniza Sur and Norte.

Make sure you start before midnight so you'll be back before 10 am at the latest, for two reasons:
First, rock fall hazard. The part of the route along The Castle, a large rock wall about one hour from the Refugio Whymper, gets dangerous around that time. Lots of small and large rocks start to fall down then from this high wall due to warming temperatures.
Passing this area (El Corredor) later in the afternoon is really running between falling rocks.
Secondly, clouds will most often roll in early in the afternoon, making route finding very difficult. As there are big areas of crevasses on both sides of the normal route, losing track can be very dangerous.
***
As I said earlier, most parties climb directly from the Whymper refuge (5,000 m / 16,400 ft.). It provides bunk-beds (4 dozens), brand new mattresses, toilets, cold water, basic food supplies, stencils, gas stove, fireplace and ... cable TV (just kidding!) .
At the moment overnight costs in Whymper refuge is USD. 15.00 a night for a bed and USD. 30.00 with meals. The refuge is partially open
You can find the same facilities and costs in the Carrel refuge (4,800 m / 15,744 ft.) as well. This refuge is completely open with 52 beds. Your climb will have to start an hour earlier, though.
What else do you need? Camping is also allowed anywhere on the mountain and some parties make a high camp to cut the summit push in two days which, I think, increases your chances to make it to the summit. The most recommendable are:
El Castillo high camp, lays in the hollow of a bowl, just a few meters beyond the rock outcrop and at the left side (north) of the Southwest ridge (the normal route). Not advisable if there’s fresh snow accumulation on the first dome. This camp can get pummeled at least by the windblast of avalanches coming from above.
Moraine camp, located 10 minutes away from Whymper refuge at 5,050 m. There’s a wide flat field in this area. Make sure you set camp away from the moraines and the Thielman glacier.

It seems like even this pandemic is not over yet, many goverments around the globe started taking more relaxed quarantine measures. People will now be able to go out more often, many businesses will reopen and public transportation will start to see more commuters again. I personally feel like we are far from over with this virus but, i am not an expert by any means. Time will tell if this was a step forward or if another wave of case will sweep all the countries. As of now, it feels like urban societies are trying to figure out how to return to their normal days. It's going to be weird in the beginning but I think eventually we will be over with this. take care and stay safe!

Das Paul-Löbe-Haus ist ein Funktionsgebäude des Deutschen Bundestags im Berliner Regierungsviertel, das sich auf dem Gelände des ehemaligen Alsenviertels am Südrand des Spreebogenparks befindet.
Das Reichstagsgebäude (kurz: Reichstag; offiziell: Plenarbereich Reichstagsgebäude) am Platz der Republik in Berlin ist seit 1999 Sitz des Deutschen Bundestages. Die Bundesversammlung tritt hier seit 1994 zur Wahl des deutschen Bundespräsidenten zusammen.
Der Bau wurde von dem Architekten Paul Wallot 1884 bis 1894 im Stil der Neorenaissance im Ortsteil Tiergarten (seit 2001 zum Bezirk Mitte gehörend) errichtet. Er beherbergte sowohl den Reichstag des Deutschen Kaiserreiches als auch den Reichstag der Weimarer Republik. Durch den Reichstagsbrand von 1933 und durch die Auswirkungen des Zweiten Weltkriegs schwer beschädigt, wurde das Gebäude in den 1960er Jahren in modernisierter Form wiederhergestellt und von 1991 bis 1999 noch einmal grundlegend umgestaltet.

This seems to be the oldest tree in our forest. It was recognized by goverment and now it is officially protected by law. We might be looking on one of the oldest being on this planet. Makes you feel so young!
... whoever speaks it
What a wise sentence!
Never heart such clever words of our goverment for a long time.
I am boring last time. So I have to change things and thinking. More urban life, geometry... . Be curious about that what is around us
My urgent call to the US Goverment, speaking as a western european civilian: Please secure the whole Nato Territory in Europe, while you can, Joe, before we are occupied! Because we are next on Putin's list, and we can't push him back alone! We are counting on you. Thank you in advance.

The construction work in the foreground is of the European China Centre Rotterdam [Rotterdam Katendrecht used to have Europe's very first China Town]. Construction started in 2010, but came to a standstill a year later because of the withdrawal of a Belgian investor and the lack of goverment decision-making concerning residence permits for Chinese investors.

El Sahara Español, actual Sahara Occidental, era una provincia de España y sus habitantes tenían la nacionalidad española.
A la llegada de los españoles, solo unas pocas tribus nómadas habitaban ese territorio; no existían ciudades ni asentamientos permanentes, y se firmaron tratados con ellos.
Tanto El Aaiún como Villa Cisneros fueron fundadas y construidas por españoles que habían pescado en la zona durante más de 400 años.
Esta zona nunca fue Marruecos, pero ahora ese país domina el territorio y ha desplazado a ciudadanos marroquíes de su país para establecerse allí y así defender su carácter marroquí. Sin embargo, los saharauis tuvieron que huir a los campos de refugiados de Tinduf, en Argelia, debido a la persecución de las autoridades marroquíes.
Fue una tragedia, ya que España estaba en proceso de conceder la independencia al territorio, con la ayuda y la supervisión de las Naciones Unidas, cuando Marruecos decidió invadirlo. Esto ocurrió en 1975 con una España debilitada en pleno proceso de democratización y con su jefe de estado, Franco, agonizando. Probablemente fue forzada por Estados Unidos a abandonar el Sáhara en beneficio de Marruecos, su aliado.
En 1991, Marruecos y el Frente Polisario firmaron un acuerdo de alto el fuego ante la ONU para preparar la celebración de la autodeterminación, en la que la población saharaui podría decidir su futuro. Sin embargo, las hostilidades se reanudaron en noviembre de 2020, después de que Marruecos obstruyera repetidamente la celebración de la consulta.
Posteriormente, Marruecos, con la ayuda de Estados Unidos, construyó un muro de norte a sur, dejando la mayor parte del país en el este, ocupada por Marruecos, y una pequeña zona en el oeste, que forma la República Árabe Saharaui Democrática y está controlada por el Frente Polisario.
Ahora, con el apoyo de Estados Unidos y la cobarde y reciente aquiescencia del actual gobierno español y algunas otras administraciones europeas (Francia, Reino Unido), Marruecos intenta anexionarse el país.
Sahara Español, now Western Sahara, was a Spain's province and local people had their Spanish nationality.
Only a few nomad tribes were around that territory when spaniards arrived, no cities or permanent settlements at all, and treaties were signed with them.
Both El Aaiún and Villa Cisneros were founded and built by spanish people that had been fishing in the area for more than 400 years.
Never this area was Morocco, but now it dominates the territory and has moved Moroccans citizens from its country to settle there in order to argue the Moroccan nature of the area but real Sahrawi people had to escape to Tindouf refugee camps, in Algeria, due to persecution by the Moroccan authorities.
It was a tragedy because Spain was in the process to give independence to the territory, with the help and surveillance of the United Nations, when Morocco decided to invade it. That happened in 1975 with a weak Spain because Franco was dying and in its process of implement democrazy and probably forced by USA to leave Sahara for the benefit of Morocco, that was his ally.
In 1991, Morocco and Frente Polisario signed a ceasefire agreement before the UN in order to prepare for the celebration of self-determination in which the Sahrawi population could decide their future. However, hostilities resumed in November 2020, after Morocco repeatedly obstructed the holding of the consultation.
Subsequently, Morocco, with the help of the United States, built a wall from north to south, leaving the majority part of the country in the east, occupied by Morocco, and a small area in the west, which forms the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic and is controlled by the Polisario Front.
Now, with the support of USA and the recent coward agreement of the current Spain's goverment and some others european ones, Morocco is trying to annex the country.
Probably my rarest A340-200 catched so far!
It's useless to say that it was a nervous day..it wasn't sunny all the afternoon and suddenly, that 4-hair dryer (most known as A340-8000) came alive on the frequency and rolled during the only moment where the sun showed up for almost 30s 😍!

I hope to be wrong
