Sunshine with ice cream

Two dollops ready to melt (snapshot made at the end of Summer 2018)

Where can you find sunshine and ice cream? Answer: Painted on the yellow wall of the Eislabor in the city of Bremen in northwestern Germany. The word Eislabor literally translates as “ice laboratory” and here it means “ice-cream laboratory.” This ice cream parlor offers traditional and exotic ice cream. The wall painting shows a cone with two dollops—chocolate and, I guess, strawberry. But don't lick the wall. Try the real stuff invented in the lab! The Eislabor is located in the district of Bremen called Östliche Vorstadt —“eastern suburb.” The light-rail lines 2 and 10 will get you there: exit at the light-rail stop “Am Hulsberg.” (Address: Am Schwarzen Meer 152, 28205 Bremen.
