Early morning

 

Hendrika Johanna

The Hendrika Johanna barge is a beautiful so-called pleasure boat. 10 meters in length, 2 meters wide. A Dutch barge, based in Alkmaar, Netherlands. I've seen her in Paris, a while ago

CDP theme day: cyclists

Old photo, Barcelona seafront, many years ago. More cyclist photos right...here
 

A blast from the past

Meeting Janis, the four boys from Liverpool, Zagor, the Floyd, Asterix and Obelix in Belgrade, 18 months ago. I really need to go back to the Balkans, so much still to see there! And it's relatively cheap, which is good for my small pension.
 

Just a cloud

 

Slowmo

 

Marine

Young marines from the Scuola Navale Militare Francesco Morosini, in Venice. More weekend/street reflections right...here

 

Place du Marché Neuf

Or New Market Square, minutes away from the cathedral. The "new" market dates back to 1738 AD, until the late 19th century. Nowadays, it's a shady parking lot, with a nice fountain.

I keep wondering about the number of "Newmarkets" wordwide...
 

Old books and foie gras

2  specialties in Strasbourg, UNESCO book world capital 2024: ancient books and foie gras from ducks. A good book and some foie gras on a warm toast. And a nice cup of coffee, of course!
 

Chicken tonight?

More B&w right... HERE
 

Typical

Typical houses in the old town. Most are dating back to the 15th century, some much older, as early as the late 13th (1298 AD).
 

Igualdad

Igualdad = equality. No idea what it is about... Some Samoan looking guy holding sausages and a bagpipe, with some devils... Anyway, more Monday murals right... here.
 

Sant Pau del Camp

9th century monastery church in Barcelona

Lavoir

The lavoir, or public wash house, where people washed their clothes before washing machines. This one is on the Aar, one of the rivers in Strasbourg. Abandoned in 1960, later renovated.
