Please Wear Shoes!

The casino in Wiesbaden has the reputation to be glamourous and elegant. The website states:

“We ask you to kindly wear appropriate clothing …

So, yes! Elegant, smart, stylish! And then this promising sentence is followed by

… (including shoes) that is in keeping with the ambience of Casino Wiesbaden.”

Ah, well.

Ragtag Daily Prompt: Glamour

I’m a Fan of the Beerfelden Gallows (Not)

It’s the only medieval three beam gallows that has been preserved in Germany. In winter this site is very barren and sad. In summer the panoramic view is stunning, and if the accounts are true, that was the very reason this location was chosen: to show the delinquent one last time the beauty of the world he or she was going to leave.

I abhor the death penalty and can’t imagine if it was worse for the condemned to meet his or her face in winter or summer.

I’m a Fan of … #208
