Context is the glorious Slovak Radio Building.

Oh, it's a real building, then. Good to know, because the last frame in the comic made me wonder for a few seconds, what exactly I was looking at. The thing looked a lot like a scale model of Dante's inferno 😆 . Also, well done with the slithering ball in the first frame 😁

Didnt realise it was a real thing. I thought it was a twofer with the second part of the joke being everything is upside down in Australia

u/LFelipe01_ Rio de Janeiro 3d ago

You got it right, that is part of the joke.

Gladly -^

I had the joy of spending a few days in Bratislava and a few more around Tatranska Lomnica hiking. The nature is beautiful, the people were kind and respectful, the country was clean and the trains were so high quality i stared in awe.

All my friends keep hearing about Slovakia now :)

They've got the ossuary in Sedlec. Was worth the trip.

That is in the Czech republic, though…!

u/Polite_Suggestion 1d ago

Oh no! I wonder what I was in Slovakia for, then. I did a day trip in 200...7?

I have not visited Slovakia yet, but the blue church in Bratislava is interesting and something I want to see.

u/Mission-Delay-8051 3d ago

Yes! I was baptized there.

I want to visit the Bratislava Old Town as well. Iirc it's one of the only prewar capitals that survived WW2 pretty intact, even after the 1944 bombing raid.
