At the very famous factory ...


for?

Yes, porcelain in Meissen, Germany.










The lady there was very nice and showed me how the drawings get done.

No matter how much I begged, she did not want to draw a plate for myself. My own little bear traveling porcelain plate to take along on my travels, the would have been grand!

But as I think about it, carrying it around in a wooden box full of straw for one plate, I guess my traveling options would be very limited then. Well, since I often have to stow away for my travels anyways, I guess it is better I keep traveling light.


After a while I got so tired, I took a little nap alongside this astonishing sculpture.
