One of Amsterdam’s major churches, the Westerkerk is very close to the Ann Frank House, where the young girl hid with her family from the Nazis during the Second World War. I wonder what sort of reception she would have had here before the war.

A warming sun and a cup of tea, even in a central noisy street, can be
a sweet pleasure in Rome.

• Personal note by Des Talbot

“Walthamstow Greyhound Racing Stadium – perhaps the most famous in London. Sadly it has recently closed and the land sold for development. An all too common indictment of the times… and one that is no doubt happening everywhere.”

This photo was taken on a recent trip to Tokyo, I came across this school group having lunch at Ueno park. The park is famous for its many museums, especially art museums, namely the Tokyo National Museum, the Orient Museum, the National Science Museum, the Shitamachi Museum, the National Museum for Western Art and the Tokyo Metropolitan Fine Art Gallery.

This was taken on a trip to the Public Transport Museum in Lucerne, Switzerland. The boat is also a part of the public transport system. Not a bad way to commute.
