When I went to Bavaria, Germany to visit my relatives by end of June of this year, I came to know three young ladies who are co-workers of my niece at a hospital there. As I have told in my previous post, they are all Registered Nurses from the Philippines who came to work for the hospital, its HR Department of which had been managed by my Stepdaughter.

Before entering the Main Gate of the Palace, there has been a feature of the Rainbow Arts by about 1600 children, initiated by the artist Ugo Rondinone. The enormous feedback of schoolchildren to paint their own rainbow art became a huge success. This is about 70 meters long back to back art display.
