Current Mood: Cool

So as I promised, here are the images. Took a while to add them, but eventually I made it happen:

Okay, first 3 pics. On left, is the “entrance” to Devin Castle. Can’t really see the text as the image size has been decreased by Photobucket. But basically it tells about the history of the castle. In the middle is some badass dude from Finland that threatened to conquer the castle and start his own empire *whistles*
The third one is simply the entrance where the first picture can be found from. Again, that badass dude! Next bunch of pics:
Again, the badass dude. Reports from all over Slovakia indicate the the vehicle seen behind him, was used for transportation.
Second picture is the overall view of the other main tower of the castle. As we get on, it looks pretty neat. And the last picture is from the way to top. The statue represents some kind of a saint whose name I can’t remember.
On the way to the top again… The first picture is take from the town centre. I think the town is called Devin. I doubt it’s really part of the Bratislava city as it’s like 10-15 kilometres away from the city central. And I think the mountains behind are between this town and Bratislava.
The second picture is taken from the castle (see next picture) and from it you can see the Danube river flowing between Slovakia and Austria. The shore on the other side of the river is actually Austria. Down from the castle, there’s a small “cabin”. The guide told us that it’s used by the homeless at times. Rumours tell that the badass dude went over there and confirmed it being empty.
And the last picture is of the 2nd main tower of the castle. And yes, it’s the baby carriage over there. Can’t see it very well, but it’s next to the stairs over there. We didn’t go to this tower.
And the last bunch from Devin Castle:
The first one is assumably the partner in crime (meaning the other Finn of the tour), Jan. Nice guy, but as I’ve mentioned in an earlier post, an Everton bastard
In the middle one, you can see the baby carriages and apparently the baby is inside with parents pushing the carriages. Behind them is the exit. You can’t see it too well, but it’s there and there’s a statue and a some sort of an table explaining about the “inventor” of the Slovak language.
And the last picture is a view of the Devin Castle “central”. I’m sure it was used for marketing et cetera back in the day and I can imagine myself wandering there drunk as hell preaching about some bitch before throwing out in the well in the centre and passing out next to it!

So here I end this lovely tour around the Devin Castle. I hope you enjoyed and stay tuned for an update from 2nd location which I haven’t decided yet.
