December CDP theme day: comfort food

Comfort food... For me, it is pizza (among others, alsatian Flammekueche, most greek or indian food, thai, chinese, ethiopian...), preferably from a wood oven, preferably in Italy!

More comfort food right here
 

Monday Murals

More cretan streetart. And more Monday Murals here.

The big bubble

The 19 century central train station in Strasbourg, covered by a 21st century glass bubble.

Rush hour

Well, not really now. This was taken during our first lockdown, on what is normally rush hour
 

Night is falling

 

Waiting for Macron

A restaurant and a hotel. Both closed. Second lockdown in France. We are millions waiting for the French president to announce (hopefully good) news tonight at 8 pm.
 

Going green in the rubble

A shithead did it

Hundreds, maybe thousands of discarded masks on our streets here.... I went to the baker this morning, 400 meters away, I saw 7 discarded masks. My feelings? Furious, sad.
 

A weekend reflection

What's for lunch?

A nice fish soup!

Antifa

A picture close to my heart... Antifa means bad things in some countries (USA...), but what is Antifa? People fighting fascism, fighting hate. And this is GOOD!!! This is what we all need to do!

More Monday Murals here
 

The watery fire station

Most firemen in France are volonteers, but not in Marseille  and Paris, where they are army units, called sapeurs pompiers, sapper firemen. More about this here.
 

Weekend reflection

Through the wind shield...

Quais de Seine

Haven't been to Paris this year. Sigh. I normally go there at least twice a year, only 2 hours away by train.
 

I want to ride my...

Oh

A cafenion is what they call a coffee place in greek. I don't have many Strasbourg photos for the moment, due to the sanitary situation here.

They do not want you to go there!

Students

Students from the Scuola Navale Militare Francesco Morosini (military navy school) in Venice on their way to town by vaporetto. Looking smart!

More really good b&w photos for the weekend right... here.
 

They canceled Christmas

The mayor of Strasbourg, Madame Jeanne Barseghian, in view of the ever worsening pandemic in town, decided to reduce the yearly Christmas market to it's simplest expression: a big tree, lights, and not much else. No chalets, no market, no Vin Chaud... And many businesses going bankrupt.

It should have marked the 450th anniversary, uninterrupted since 1570 AD, even during wars.
 

The dude

A get well post about Jeff Bridges, who is been treated for lymphoma.

Dude, you can do it!

1200 years

One more photo from my trip to Molsheim, 20 km away, last summer. Molsheim is a youngish town by european standards, barely 1200 years old.
 

This is not a painting!

No, they are some flowers and plant, seen last summer in the immediate surroundings.
 

Molsheim

Inviting place in Molsheim, 20 km away.
