TRY ME... I´ll Be Back!

 
Signs still from Magnifest, which we call jokingly Maggifest as my SIL thought the festival is about this:

 
The bottle won´t close anymore...



We had but this, shared and still too much:


And then...


This was...


This is for Tom´s Signs2.

The internet series:

"Germany to scare: 30 ruins of days long gone


 St. Nikolai Memorial, Hamburg

From a distance, one might mistake St. Nicholas's for an ordinary church, but it is anything but: Completed in 1874, the neo-Gothic structure was for a time the tallest building in the world and housed a vibrant congregation until the main church was bombed during the aerial bombing of Hamburg in 1943. Of the largely irreparably damaged church, only the hollow shell of the church tower and parts of the foundation walls remained structurally intact and have been preserved as a memorial for posterity.

Today, visitors can take an elevator to the top. The ruins also house a museum and a memorial."

I think it's good that that church has become a monument. I was in Hamburg but didn't see it. And furthermore: Henry is fantastic again today!

I haven´t seen it, either - an elevator to the top sounds interesting, I think (not that I would do it). Henry says than you.

Tom said...

...Iris, I haven't had burger in a month of two, perhaps this weekend. Thanks for the reminder!

Those hamburgers look awesome. Enough to feed four. Fun that they had a Skippy burger on the menu, too. The ruins of the church must be hauntingly beautiful.

Iris Flavia said...

You´re welcome, Tom!

Iris Flavia said...

Thank you...

I´m not so much a fa of skippy meat, too "wild". Yes, looks like there could roam a ghost or two!

Sami said...

Great name for a burger :) :) :) The Magnifest lion is beautiful Iris. Have a great rest of the week.

Iris Flavia said...

Yes, they sure were creative with the names! I have a t-shirt with this Lion :-) To a great rest of the week - can´t believe how time runs....

RedPat said...

Lots of burgers for Henry, Iris.

Iris Flavia said...

Wish they would´ve stayed here, I´d tried each and every one, RedPat!

Dear friend Iris, the hamburgers 🍔 ♥️ look very good. The ruins is fascinating and Henry looks regal.
Love and warm hugs.

Iris Flavia said...

Iris Flavia said...

Dear friend Linda, oh, the one we had was good 🍔! And so sad I didn´t know about the ruins,but then I was there 2006 and maybe it was not possible .... aw, well long ago I visited! Henry says thank you and also gives love and warm hugs

Ohhh you don't know how much I would love a really good burger. Just can't find one here. They are dry and they don't put anything on the buns. Ya know mayo, secret sauce. Just a dry burger. The ruins are fascinating.

Iris Flavia said...

And I thought you´re THE land of burger! Yes, sad I missed those ruins when I was (more than once even!) there...

River said...

How does anyone eat such a huge burger? I would have to take it apart and use a knife and fork! and take half home for later. Same with some of those hot dogs I think. They do look delicious. The ruins look interesting.

Ingo and I always share... but I really do see people eating a whole one by themselves! Can´t be healthy...
