Groningen City - Part One, Random Shots

Part ONE! Just random photos of Groningen... No stories to tell, just photos taken when we're doing our daily activites!
A river/lake close to Tessa's house with many ducks & geese around

Just one (bird?) here


Maggie on the bridge over the stream

Told you there were plenty of them!


Me everyday in the morning having breakfaston the way to work!






One of our dinners at a restaurant in the City Center

The pot that's elevated contains beef in some brown gravy. To the left of it is red cabbage, which I didn't really like because the flavour is really strong. Well, potatoes is typical staple food here and you can't see it, but there's chicken sate on my plate!

The ceiling of that restaurant! Notice all the things hanging!


People waiting at one of the many bridges across a canal

The bridges 'open' at intervals to allow boats to pass through. Pedestrians & motorists just have to wait, of course :) This particular bridge is special because instead of opening upwards, it swivels to one side of the canal to let boats pass on the other side.



A church close to the hospital that we work at



Random photo taken on the bus on the way home


The Martini Tower in the background with some parts of the city centre captured


A cafe/restaurant that looks nice behind Maggie


Background - something like the city building of Groningen where people can get married and do other official stuff


Yoghurt Drink we had at La'Place, which is really similar to Marché in Singapore!
