Bristol - Shoes On Tree

Despite the weather forecast of rain and gloom, the sun is particularly cherry this morning. It seems almost a sin to stay indoor so I decide to go for a walk.

This is what I saw - reminds me of the scene in the movie 'Big Fish'.

I wonder what is this for, especially outside the hallowed Bristol Cathedral.

Opposite the cathedral stood this curving crescent of a building, the Council House. For those who are familiar with street art, Banksy's graffiti of a naked man hanging outside the window is just over the road from this building. Maybe I'll take a picture of it sometime... or for those who are really curious, try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Banksy.in.bristols.park.street.arp.jpg

Soon after, I wander into Brandon Hill with its picturesque view overlooking the cityscape.

Here is the Cabot Tower that crowns Brandon Hill...

And the tunnel of trees that encircles the park...

With the promise of spring around the corner.

And lastly, a picture of the Bristol Museums & Art Galleries where the LOVE exhibition and dear Alfred are held.

By the way, it did look as if rain was coming during the noon, but the clouds passed and the sun remains shinning well into afternoon.

Hi anas, hmm there should be a comic con here, somewhere during the spring (likely May) and there is suppose to be a comic shop called Area51. I'll have to look into that. :D
