The end of my show from the Island "Mainau" - onward and upward to new subjects

http://www.mainau.de/

On the front page of this link you see the island, as I said for reasons one does not know it has tropical climate. Even as a school child I heard about this magical island.
It is in the huge lake of Constance at the German/Swiss/Austrian borders. The building you see on the island is my first shot.



All over Germany the re-cycling is done just like this, and they are adamant about it including in homes



The bridge, the waters and the walkway to the island. I don't know the history of the sculpture, only the subject matter.



Fascinating trees along the path





Welcoming flower scupture



A peacock



Vegetables





And a shot I thought was fun of water going into the lake
