      Only a few Baroque days left, I am happy to observe. Not that I dislike Baroquery; just that too much can make me feel bilious.

        Does anyone know what the next 'theme' will be and when ?

        I do hope we have a respite before something else trundles into view.

          I think this one is Weltenburg on the Danube near Regensburg in Bavaria, not Austria, Floss. We had a holiday touring all these wonderful baroque churches between Munich and Würzburg some years ago. (Strangely enough I much prefer German/Austrian baroque architecture to the music! )
