CDP monthly theme day: neighbourhood

Well, this is my immediate neighbourhood, as taken from my balcony this morning, in Ostwald, just outside Strasbourg. Ostwald, German for east forest, or east wood. No, Clint does not live here.
3 more schooldays for the kids at the back.
More about the theme all around the world here.

Mum, I'm gonna jump you!

I miss Venice

I normally go there 2-4 times a year, but I haven't in months... Hopefully soon.

Knock knock knock

Fête de la COVID

The yearly Fête de la musique was.... Special. Oh ok, it was joyous and entertaining, misicians on boats, bicycles, jazz, rock...
What was extremely disturbing  was the big groups, hundreds of people, no social distancing, no masks in sight. Fête de la musique, or fête de la COVID?

RIP, Wolf musique

The oldest music shop in town, killed by COVID and by the lack of help of the french goverment.

Weekend in black and white

I have absolutely no idea what this bird is: black beak, black legs, yellow feet.
More b&w here.
UPDATE: it's an egret, aigrette in French, Reiher in German.

It's raining, angels

Fun at the cathedral!

Catch the bubbles!

Green

Some greens from one of the many waterways here

Not a spaceship!

The main tramway station in town, in the place de l'homme de Fer, iron man square. 2 origins for the name, depending who you ask: either the first train in the 19th century, or the statue of a soldier in armor, above a pharmacy. Absolutely nothing to do with Robert Downey Jr, or Stan Lee!

Colors

Thanks, dude, for making a grey day more colorful.

A weekend reflection

I'm dreaming about taking one of the boats in Budapest, and going all the way to the Black Sea...

Weekend in black and white

The Vosges mountain range is about 25 km from here, all along the Rhine river, from Germany to the Swiss border.
Well, this the place des Vosges, Vosges square, in Paris, nowhere near the actual Vosges. More about the most beautiful square I know of here.
