Looks like a beautiful place. I'm wondering how they got that tree to look like that though, did someone come out and lean on it for a few hours every day for years while it was growing, forcing it sideways like that ???
And why didn't they do the same for the post with the yellow top on the sidewalk next to the tree ?
Leif, this place is directly across from a cafe. I love the idea of having a home away from home like that.
Owen, it's very like a bonsai tree, or maybe it just resembles that to me because I don't know anything about bonsai trees. Anyway, I love its angle because it makes everything else look a little crooked.
Everybody's looking for something. Mary Ann is looking for the real Beirut, whatever that means. These are the photos she takes along the way.
You can browse around the archives here or check out her other blogs. There's one from a few years ago, back when she blogged about art. And then there's another from '09 when she lived in St. Louis (USA).
Man would I like to sit up on that balcony with a good cup of coffee and watch the world go by.....
