  1. This photo really has to be enlarged to get the full effect. There's so much to see! I love the girl talking on the phone - she's laughing and obviously having a good time; as are the others.

    Looks like a high school field trip!

    And what a bench!

  3. Those are serious bars on the windows.
    The one boy found a good bench full of happy girls.

  4. I sat there mad at myself that I hadn't checked beforehand that it would be open. The splendours that are inside...

  5. Those windows are massive!
    I'm curious about this building but I imagine they don't allow to take pictures inside, it's a pity...

  6. Looks like they're having a good time. It would be fun to be there at that age.

  7. I always like to see benches in use. Empty benches always seem sort of sad somehow. Those kids look very energetic!
