Tradition
It’s Friday, and that’s when I go to the Soup Lounge for lunch. Today is sunny and there are two ways for me to walk there: by the canal, or along the edge of the old quarter.
I can’t tell you how awesome the walk is, either way you choose. The street by the old quarter has all those iconic gabled lowlands houses. There’s even a fricking castle there, right in the center. There are beautiful bridges on the canal and in one place a there’s a huge willow formingĀ reaching into the water andĀ a roof over the boardwalk and it’s like walking into a Monet.
Sure the canal smells and the streets are dirty. But I love this city.
