Not often we see train platforms this totally empty. Middle of the day no less.

KSR Railway Station, the main train station in #Bengaluru #India as we await the train to #Udupi. 🚉
PS: "Garden City" is Bengaluru's moniker, which is just so not apt anymore. Still a nice city.

Why the #pretzel—baked worldwide—is shaped the way it is, according to the Wiesender Bakery.
In short: it symbolizes folded arms for prayer.
PS: This is a picture I took today of a wall poster.

Sunset through a window in the roof. Not my best picture; "artistic" nevertheless. 🌅

Caught me some "Schäfflertanz", a dance custom dating back to 19th century coopers (makers of bins, barrels, etc.) of Old #Bavaria, #Germany. Performances in modern times are apparently on a 7-year cycle.

Always nice to visit a Christkindlmarkt in Germany, though the markets are getting smellier each year: much of the market, in any city, is just food these days. 🎄

A 10-year old's winter painting on an interior glass door (at a friend's). The objects are traced using a "FensterBilder" and really well executed.

#tbt: Jan. 1st 2025, I'd just arrived in #Udupi #India on #sabbatical, a "baby"; knew no one. With Sri Krishna's grace, the Swamijis' guidance, and the kindness of hundreds, I now feel I belong and welcomed there. 🙏
