If there's a 'Stairway to Heaven' there's obviously a 'Doorway to ?'......

I'd take the lift, but that doesn't have a floor either.

Judgement time...

in third place is Sirius B for thinking outside the box with:
"Parachutist training room."

in Second Place is JaundicedEye for:
"If there's a 'Stairway to Heaven' there's obviously a 'Doorway to ?'......"

and in FIRST PLACE, with the responsibility for the next picture, is
[dramatic pause]
Anniet for:
"I'd take the lift, but that doesn't have a floor either."

Take it away Anniet... PM to be sent once this is posted...

My caption, you ask?
If Heinlein had a Door into Summer, this is a "door into winter"...

this was taken in a bus station in Cuidad de México — where winter is just a state of mind...
I think what happened here, is that the door had stairs leading down when the station was built (in the 1960's...), but the stairs were removed in a subsequent remodel, and the door locked shut.

Thank you, HHG for the win :)

I really don't know whether I've made the right choice here. I ummed-and-aahed a lot
but then I thought I could just let you lot do that instead, and sit back and see what happens ;)

So, you know... good luck everyone!



edit: the thread has suddenly got very wide all of a sudden. I'm sure it wasn't like that just now. I'm not sure if I've done that somehow, but I will try to fix it if I have. Apologies in the meantime :/
