Kaufhaus Modern

The oldest department store in town. Built by Germans, called first Kaufhaus Modern, modern department store, then  Magmod, (or Magmo, as most people used to say, forgetting the D at the end), now Galeries Lafayette. Selling mostly expensive brands nowadays

Weekend in black and white

Probably the most famous tree in town! Le platane de la Petite France, a plane tree in it's prime, only 352 years old. A good place to have a drink. During summer, that is, not now, unless of course you are wearing a heated diving suit.
More b&w here.
Friends of b&w, you might have a look at an earlier post, right here

(Not so) Heavenly sounds

Well, not heavenly to me... I really don't like most Christmas muzak!!! With a few exceptions. Definitely nothing I can hear in town. Fortunately (for me anyway), the people in charge took the decision to mute the muzak. GOOD!!!

12 nights before...

The town looks beautiful, but far far too crowded. Over 2 million tourist expected over the holidays...
