Weekend Time in Dresden, Germany - 2

I started my Sunday morning at the Sachs.Dampfschif. You may also reached this place by tram & stop at Carolaplatz which will be the other end of this spot.

The below pic is taken with the Finance Bureacy building behind.
This is a monument for Ernst Riethschels at Synagoge area.

Then, i walked to Zwinger again now..it's a different view compared to previous 1 month plus ago....

The below pic was taken last mid of Oct 2009...

Saw this plastic coverage, but not sure why is covered only these particular area..hmmm

Nice sculpture..

Overall view..

Then, i go around Zwinger, there's a lake, suppose it's a lake, now become a skating area..

In Oct 2009, it was like this...

So so nice..:)

My weekend in Dresden,Germany

My weekend starts with a heavy breakfast...

This is what i have daily for breakfast. It's only during weekend i get to enjoy the breakfast, more time spent....

Before headed to window shop, i had a short rest & relax at hotel lobby...

Then, there i go, to town area to all the shopping malls. Went to Centrum, Karstad & Altmarkt...3 of this shopping mall are just walking distance...And huge crowd as we get warmer in shopping malls & most importantly for ladies, it's big sales now for winter clothing..till 70% discount...for myself, i bought a nice vest from Zara..

Centrum Shopping mall considering quite new, when i was there, there were live band with profesional musicians walking from floors to floors...A huge crowd were looking & enjoying it...

See the big crowd...

Some old model car,

Creative mugs

Cutie kangaroo dolls...

According to my friend here, he said the banana imported here have certain requirement where the length has certain standard to follow..all are huge..

It's different from Msia that you'll find different sizes of banana...

It's juz something to share with you all...I questioned this as normally during bfast at hotel, they do provide fruits & normally i'll see huge size banana...

I bought a Movenpick Latte Machiato drink, it was quite nice..

After a long window shop around the shopping malls, I went to try a Vietnamese style dish for dinner..
It was quite nice..nice food with reasonable price..There i go, i tried the Crispy Duck dish..

My friend tried this Pork dish..quite good too...

This cafe is near Altmarkt Galerie..it's on the way towards tram station-Postplatz..

2nd trip to Germany

Again, it was a tiring day for me after a long flight from Penang to Spore to Frankfurt & finally Dresden. Almost 21 hours altogether.
This time, my feeling was really cold, freezing...We arrived at 11.30am & straight to hotel to check-in. However, there’s no room at that moment. There'll be available room after another 2 hours. Thus, we have to walk to the nearest coffeeshop, my usual asian food, called ‘Flinke Pfanne’ to have lunch.Haha..i ordered my favourite Crispy Duck, or we called it Peking Duck....yum yum...

Then, i dropped by to the supermarket nearby, it was under renovation & things get less there. Anyway, i just want to get a mineral water bottle.

Before headed back to hotel, i had a walk near a park at Stauffenbergallee. Weather was around 1deg C, still OK for me.

Then, a 5 mins walk to Holiday Inn. Immediately, i got my room & had a nice warm bath. Rest & relax time...it was still not enough for me to get a good rest...It was too cold for me to go out for dinner on the 1st night. I was too tired & sleepy & having flu..hmmm...1st day was terrible...
I felt better after a few days. However, i was too lazy to go out as weather was cold, it was -7deg C. So, the nearest restaurant was Stephen Restaurant at Holiday Inn itself. I had a great dinner, i had Fish this time, i ordered Fried Salmon, but there weren’t salmon anymore..It was Mackerel i guess. The waitress did told me, but due to language issue, i did not get what she said. The important thing is it was a nice meal after all.

I ordered a Banana Juice(called Bananensaft); and i like it though...

You can enjoy the liquor there as well...
