Kehl am Rhein

Kehl, Germany, just a bridge away from Strasbourg.Often a part of Strasbourg, the city (approx. 36.000 inhabitants), became totally German last in 1953. A shopping town for us strasbourgeois, as many things are cheaper there: food, petrol, tobacco... It's about 17 mn from Strasbourg city centre by tramway.

October theme day: my response to COVID

You live only once... I was supposed to fly to Istanbul in march, on a gastronomical holiday, but my flights were cancelled. So, let's cook Turkish and other foreign food at home! Nevertheless, to fight cabin fever, I travelled when it became possible, Croatia in August, Crete in September, always checking the COVID stats before. Gorgeous food in both countries!

Hopla!

A restaurant in the Petite France area. Hopla is the logo for Fischer beer. I'm not a beer drinker, can't stand it.

Rainy days

Don't throw cigarettes on the floor!!!

Nikos Kazantzakis

 

Nikos Kazantzakis is, and remains one of my favourite authors. I discovered him in my youth, and he shaped it.

I can't't go to Crete without visiting his tomb.Every time.

I hope for nothing. I fear nothing. I am free.

 

Μια τοιχογραφία τη Δευτέρα

 

Greek, for: a Monday Mural. Mia toichografía ti Deftéra.

Well, running out of murals, I went to look for them on the island of Crete, Greece. Bingo! There seems to have been a mural "championship" in Herakleion, the island's capital, beautiful ones. Enjoy!
