Many schools are named for Otto Lilienthal, the pioneer in aviation, particularly near Berlin, where he lived and tried out his gliding contraption.

I’m sure the first people seeing Lilienthal in the sky were as mesmerised as these onlookers – admiring a glider that flies through the air without motor.

Worms’ view

The town on the left side of the river Rhine is called Worms which should explain the title. It used to be just one bridge (the right one) but traffic between the state of Hesse and the Palatium had become so much that they added the left one a few years ago and made each a one way bridge. I’ve just read that the older bridge dating back to 1953 has to be replaced in the next few years as renovation is not possible. However, only the part that actually crosses the water needs to be replaced, the new bridge will fit seamlessly with the old parts on either end. A perspective to look forward to.
