Cartwheeling
by Sjalen
There is an old tradition of wheeling in the city (no idea if they were famous wainwrights here or what) and these days cartwheeling is still done by children in the street, usually to collect money for some charity. Outside the Uerige brewpub is this "Radschläger" sculpture to further emphasise this tradition and if anyone can tell me how it all started or why it is so big in Düsseldorf, feel free :)
It's Fresh!

This wonderful shop has been open since 1902, and since 1949 in todays location, the 5th generation of the same family operate it these days and offer really fresh fruit and vegetable and flowers.

I have only been here for a couple of months and have mainly explored surrounding areas by car as it has been raining (as if they get a monsoon season) so hopefully when the weather is more friendly I shall explore further.
I like the fact that this part of Germany is very clean. The people here are very friendly and big sausage eaters!!
