I just had an interesting trip to wikipedia through the link you provided. It would only give me the English version for a few seconds before it reverted back to German. But I get the gist - very cool how old some of these buildings are, and that they are still so wonderfully intact. It can be done.
I love you BnW photos, despite your disappointment with the weather. The cactus shot is fab.
Hahah the Wiki is in German actually. I had to google translate it. That's what I got when searching for the image :p
Thank you!
