Seen last Tuesday near my cardiologist's office. Straight out of Tolkien... No, the tree did not walk away!

Armand Gaston Maximilien de Rohan's place

The Prince-archbishop de Rohan's palace, built in 1732. Just next to the cathedral. And to the free public toilet. More about it here.

To the top

As long as I remember, and I've spent half of my life here, there have always been ongoing works on the cathedral. Pollution and bird poo destroy everything, making the pink sandstone turn black. You can go up to a platform, 66 metres up, through a very narrow staircase, 330 steps. Therefore, a lift for the workers.

November City Daily Photo theme day: cooking

I love cooking! But I've had to go wayyyyy back (2011...) to find an appropriate photo for this theme. Barcelona, Fiera de Abril, a señor cooking what looks like huevos rancheros.

More cooking posts right... here.

Christmas?

Putting up the big Christmas tree. Why so early? Well, it will take a few weeks to decorate it, in time for the Christmas market, opening November 27th.
