Hamburg: Blankenese



It's so cold, wet and grey outside, I really miss summer! Even though it doesn't get nearly as hot here as it does where I grew up in the Delaware/Maryland region of the US, we had some really nice days (though not nearly enough!) If you're ever in Hamburg with beautiful weather, I suggest you checkout Blankenese.



It's a little far from central Hamburg, but well worth the trip! A beautiful neighborhood on the Northern bank of the Elbe slopes down dramatically, and is covered in cute houses, stone paths and secret gardens!

The hill is so steep in parts, it looks like you could walk onto the roof of the next house!






These narrow paths are actually streets. It can feel a little strange being on a public road yet able to see into a second story window.





That's my husband, Colin!
