You see flowers in windows and on balconies everywhere. *Also true of northern Italy.
Looks like many locations in the states, doesn't it?
Some of the houses in the small villages here and in Italy are often extremely close to the roads. I'm sure it was because the villages are so old- that they were around when horses, those walking, or wagons were the modes of available transportation and as a result- this was as wide as they could make the streets to accommodate the modern forms of transportation.
Now, I wonder... what was the reason or zoning situation that caused this to happen?
More photos to come.

Maybe that last shot was to accommodate a horse and buggy to stop and let off it's riders?
I'm enjoying the beautiful pictures! :-)
That last photo is definately interesting, Something you don't see around here :)

I love your pictures! I lived in Graf in 1969&70 and am looking for familiar scenes. I remember the gray days and cold in the winter. I loved the Christmas market in Nurenberg. Many fond memories. Thanks
