~ BLUMENAU - Great pictures in a great day ~

[schmidt]

Hey :cool:

Yesterday I took the day to take some pics. I went to 3 places. First, Coronel Federsen Street, a region with many nice houses, including the biggest in town. After that I headed to the PROEB region, which is being almost entirely rebuilt. The PROEB complex has been torn down and re-built from the scratch. The German Village is being remodelled and the 2 streets in the region are being reurbanized. Later on I went downtown, of which I had already taken some pics, but not in such a great day with such a great camera.

Anyway, here's the result and I hope you guys enjoy my city!

lol, I said in your San Francisco thread that it only had so much replies because it was San Francisco, and that when brazilians posted threads about brazilian cities, half of the (few) replies were from brazilians bumping the thread, like this one! :)

[FREKI]

And ofcause how can you not love the German inspired ones :D
