Take a walk!

Take a walk!
I'd surely say "What ever will come of boys who play with guns!" - if I had not done it myself as a kid.

I like the image because it reminds me of being a boy. Not just because of the guns or the boys, but because of the place: this is how it used to be. I took this picture in the middle of Helsinki, and, as you may guess, there are not too many streets like this left.

Bergen is the only place in Norway which I know quite well, so I know what you mean. The sloped terrain may have helped Bergen to preserve much more of the old buildings than Helsinki: today everything needs to be big, and it is hard to build anything big on the slopes of those fjords. :)

I went up the funicular to the top to take in the view ... on the way down again is when
I walked through little backstreets and met some wonderful people ... and saw the
smallest house ;-) have you seen it ? it was painted a pale yellow colour ... I always
remember this little house.

I can imagine that it felt like going back in time, the kind of views that can make you smile.
