Now and then - Cutty Sark

Cutty Sark in London Greenwich. The first photo was taken in 1982 when I was on a school exchange in Tring Our teachers took us for the London outing to Greenwich instead of Oxford Street, which annoyed mainly the girls. I also would have preferred to see something more well-known instead of an old ship rotting away as a museum.

Now, 33 years later, the Cutty Sark has been beautifully restored and a new museum has been built around it. Well worth a visit! And Greenwich is always on our schedule if we visit London. So much to do and to see...

The picture was taken from the same point, but the ship was lifted and moved backward.

Now and then - Goldenes Dachl, Innsbruck

47 years apart - the top picture taken by my father in 1963. The whole building and the golden roof itself were in quite bad shape. 47 years later it glitters golden again, beautifully restored and parking no longer allowed. Read more at Wikipedia.

Now and then - St. Laurentius, Schifferstadt

Church St. Laurent in my hometown of Schifferstadt. On the left how it looked like in 1948, most likely taken by my Grandfather, on the right from nearly the same point a view from 2004.

This is the house my grandparents used to live in. Top photo was taken in the 1950s and bottom in 2002. A top floor has been added and all storage has been converted to apartments.
