Locals Flock t the Parks

During the weekends, and lesser extent, the local people come to the parks to play, relax and enjoy the days. WE saw a large number come to the Alaunpark off Bischofsweg Strasse. It is a very large park, and it got to a point where not many places were left to put down a blanket. Frizbies are the main item to lay with by the people.

Home Delivery of Chicken

I guess that maybe this truck delivered roasted chickens to the merchants or vendors, and maybe to the home residences? The marking on the truck is undeniable that chicken is what he is into.

Music Cheers Up all

There are some outdoor places that will play music for the crowds, and it is fun to drop by and listen. Many people get into the routine and sing along, or clap hands. Dancing is done by some in the right setting

Rows of tents with goods - Dresden

Rows of tents with goods

Market DAys are Special

WE got to one of these located at Grossner Garden area, and it was very large. Typical fare for all the entrepreneur tents is cheese, sausages and meats of all kinds; fresh and skinned where needed, vegetables and fruits, clothing of all types for all ages, and a number of eating places with good Deutsch food. It is always a treat to visit these events, and this one is every Friday at the park entrance on Lennerstrasse.
WE always end up buying some goods, and usually too much to carry back to the apartment, but manage. It gives us some home meals.
