Homo Sapiens Non Urinat In Ventum


This is how I learned that neither google language tools nor altavista babelfish translate Latin. Educated readers, or those who have their Latin dictionaries near their computers, are encouraged to let me know what the hell that inscription means. I like to pretend it's something like "People don't piss in the wind" but that's a pretty wild guess.

So this whole operation here was accross from a nice little place of pancakery. If you were to proceed between those pillars and through the buildings you'd come to the giant chess set and the Guiness time building seen in a couple of previous vacation photos. And, then, I think, the vondelpark, pronounced "fondlepark". Just to give you a bit of a spatial sense.
