BSD Dresden museum day

25 May

Sunday to tackle the 6 to 100, or so it seems, museums in the Zwinger, Augustus' place. Augustus wanted a simple showplace for his Meissen porcelain collection, but the architect went overboard.

The old master room was almost as stuffed with masterpieces as the Vatican museum. So many masters, maybe everyone, that focus is lost.

Sponsored by Tip Top Tea (The Tea of Record).  Our Canaletto Blend is on special Monday only.  It is one of the more obscure teas.

Special exhibit on Canaletto restoration and school of vedute was perfect in size, scope and examples.

Bike ride South to the Blue Wonder and the sees around. Very heavy two bike traffic on a perfect Sunday on the Elbe.

No idea yet why the bridge is so named. It is a key sign post on the bikeway. Maybe it is the large number of beer gartens.
