August CDP theme day: garden

My favorite type of gardens... No maintenance or TLC needed... Everything I plant dies, except cacti. This is the huge cactus garden on Montjuic hill in Barcelona.

More garden photos here

Same house as Sunday, other window, with a stork and the Alsatian flag.

Going for a boat tour

Tourist going for an one hour and 10 minutes boat tour along the Ill river. A nice way to see the town. I did it once, with a foreign friend, and I enjoyed it! It will cost you 14.90 euros, for an adult.

Bath time

After weeks of heatwave with a few short thunderstorms, October weather is on this week: rain, under 20 degrees C. Sheer bliss! Well, maybe not for tourists or holiday makers.
 Oops, sorry, this is Thursday's post, I thought today was Friday ... Newly retired guy's life: no Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays.... It's all the same, mostly, just ....days. Anywho and anyway, here we go, just click here to see more gorgeous b&w. Just do it, you won't regret it! The never-ending weekend (for some) starts right now!

Rain, finally!

Scorching heat in the south of Europe. Not here, it finally rains. Bliss! Reminded me of a rainy summer holiday week in southern Portugal, with just a little sunshine.

No fireworks

No fireworks in Strasbourg this year on our fete nationale, aka Bastille Day, July 14th. Everything is far too dry. So, here is a shot from 2 years ago, taken from my balcony, 4 km away, cropped.
