It's autumn in Hanover too
Our marvellous hosts, Maggi & Jens
And their faithful companion Bubble, in their fabulous house
And here's the wood we helped them stack along an outside wall
The New Town Hall of Hanover
I'd roar like that too if I had a column stuck in my back!
Hanover has a happening architecture scene...really?
The Old Town Hall, looking a bit Dutch there with those gables
After the War, they moved all the surviving old houses into one street
Still looking a bit Dutch...
The last remaining bit of a monastery at the water's edge
A pleasant old town
One of many pretty churches
The Red Line, Hanover's famed guided walk for tourists. It seems you have to have had a few pints before attempting this stretch...
A lovely courtyard in the centre of town
Shall we go for a beer? Alright then!
Lorna catches some last rays before we enter the Irish pub
Hanover, home of Germany's most romantic road signs ("Lovers, please kiss here")
Hanover, home of Germany's campest opticians' window displays
The Old Town Hall by night
And the New Town Hall by night
Jens watches equanimously...
...as Phil fights with Bubble for his favourite toy, Pig...
...and wins! (Don't worry folks, Phil gave Pig back later)
Me with my buddies Maggi & Lorna
We went for a walk through the English-ish countryside (except that we don't have that many windmills in England)
Autumn's kaleidoscope colours
The tower on the top of Hanover's highest hill
Bubble, esteemed stick stealer, finally meets his match
It's a dog's life!
