There was a time, when planes did not fly regularly over the Atlantic Ocean, and so the "Hanseatic" offered a regular service for the line Cuxhaven-New York City, and 1350 passengers were a lot on a ship. ...

(further info in the ALT-Text)









...That was between 1958 and 1966. When I was little, I watched the confetti departure of the "Hanseatic" to NYC. I stood before that mighty big steel ship and as a little boy I was really impressed, and I waved it good bye.

The picture shows the "Hanseatic" arriving at harbor "Steubenhöft" in Cuxhaven (Germany, coordinates 53°51′40″N 08°41′40″E), pulled in by a tug. On the right there are standing big cranes for unloading the old style freighters, on the left the bows of the ship and the tug are seen in the waters of the Elbe river.

The sky seemed cloudy, water was calm.

The photography is from my grandparents´ collection.

Schnell ist die #Hanseatic ja: Mittlerweile alles freigeschaltet (App, Zugang, Wunsch-PIN für #Kreditkarte ) und auch schon im digitalen Wallet (#GPay) hinterlegt. Nächste Woche kommt dann wohl auch die Plastikkarte...

Aggiornamento: i tecnici mi hanno perfino bidonato. Nessuna chiamata, nessuna email.

Faccio i nomi: #Operatec, riparatore fiduciario della ditta #Hanseatic.

È già la seconda volta che mi inculano nel giro di sei mesi: la volta passata mi hanno fatto aspettare due mesi e mezzo per la sostituzione della cinghia del motore della lavatrice. Mi ero così rotto i coglioni che ho fatto presente la cosa al venditore, mi ha risarcito ed ho ordinato un'altra marca purché non fosse Hanseatic.

media reports about soldiers trying a fermented fish that was getting unpopular in the 16th century, but as didn't pay the state dept to league, they refused to export to and Sweden had to ferment the fish again and those it's the only Scandinavian country that keeps on this tradition. It could be used as a weapon by dropping large quantity of the liquid on enemy troops.

For #FensterFreitag #PhotoOfTheDay takes us on a walk through the centre of Gdańsk in Poland.
While admiring the Hanseatic style buildings with their ornate façades and gables this window caught my attention, the adornment is certainly not from that period.

Looking up at the outside of a casement window. Each side is divided into 6 panes and they have each been painted with different designs. Across the middle are what looks to be images of the Beatles from the mid to late 1960's. To each side of the window are statues of knights in armour standing on a ledge, each are holding a sword but only the left one has a shield.

#hanseatic bank changed their API, so I had to start #mitmproxy to intercept the #android app traffic. (Luckily they don't use certificate pinning, this would make it much harder to #reverseEngineer )

If you give all your attention to the Town Hall when you visit the Rathausplatz in #Riga, you are looking the wrong direction! The "House of the Black Heads" was rebuilt in the 1990s. A guild hall on this site had existed since the 14th century, marking Riga's participation in the #Hanseatic League and other trade networks. The statue of Roland is a nice grace note from the past, too.

A white stone statue with sword and shield stands before two impressive brick gables.  Gilt weather vanes and spires appear at the top of the gables.  The facades are very light and bright.

The Small Guild hall of #Riga, #Latvia recalls the rapid growth of trade across the #Baltic Sea in the early years of the "Livonian Confederation." The German Crusaders who arrived in the 13th century were accompanied by traders (such as members of the #Hanseatic League). Amber, furs, and amber were soon flowing into Europe!

Oosterlingen Square in #Bruges was the site of the #Hanseatic League's palace in the city. The building was so sumptuous that it was featured in the "Seven Miracles of Bruges," a 16th century painting celebrating the city's highlights.

Today, only some of the foundations remain, incorporated in a hotel.

For centuries, #Bruges was a critical port, with substantial connections to the #Hanseatic League and other networks. House Bouchoute incorporates a compass to specify the current wind direction, enabling merchants to know which ships could sail on a given day.

On a sunny day, tourists walk in the Grote Markt.  A line of buildings with gables show the wealth in trade this city enjoyed.  A curious circular dial with the cardinal directions appears at the top of the centered building.

I love a beautiful stained glass window and this circular one is in the Hospital of the Holy Spirit in Lübeck, Germany. There is a painted date above it of 1655 but I don't know if this window dates from then or not.
