Warming up

Very little time to take photos at the moment, so there is one taken a few months ago.

Waking up...

Waking up to a beautiful winter sky, waking up to "Moscow-Paris" the aptly named cold front du jour. -13 degrees C wind chill right now, or 8.6 F. Our usually warm Korsika island is in the grips of a huge snowstorm.
Photo taken from my (open) kitchen window.

Suzanne's place

Still all dressed up for the holidays...

St Martin's bridge

Grey and dull outside. Bring on the color!

City lights and the moon

It finally stopped snowing, after 24 hours non stop. One more week of it, or so they say... Nice!!!

Lost

Winter Strasbourgland!

We had an inch of snow last night!!!

Museum of modern and contemporary art

Took this photo last summer, and... I forgot the title of this piece. And I couldn't find it on the net either. But, oh boy, I love it!

The animal

Weird beast seen in Germany. Winged moon-horse maybe.

Monthly theme day: photo of the year

Maybe not my best, but most definitely a favorite, an accurate description of this world we live in.
More best ofs here.

2017

So many names!!!

Here, we call them knack. Further down in France, they are called Strasbourg sausages. Elsewhere, they are franks, frankfurters, in Germany, they are called Wiener, viennese sausages. Very international things! How do you call them?
History tells us they were first invented in Strasbourg, some 500 years ago. Best with mustard, or with sauerkraut!

Disappearing act

The unedited view from my kitchen window, 5 minutes ago. The outside world is disappearing. Might be a good thing, but certainly not for anyone out here, as it just well freezing. Dangerous night.

COLD!!!!!

After a mild autumn, it is getting really cold. Really really cold. What we need is this: vin chaud (mulled wine, hot), maybe a knack (wiener), but most definitely choucroute (sauerkraut) and the quintessential flammekueche, or tarte flambée (here), the meal of gods!
And no, it is not a pizza, as they say on the link above! Blasphemy!!!

The High Council

So often a place of anger.

The Christmas tree on Place Gutenberg

I think they have pretty much in Luxembourg

Standing tall

Whatever sad the weather might be, however bad the world news might be... We still are the Capitale de Noel, the Christmas capital!

Noel

Shop decoration gone christmassy

A french Christmas

Got all your presents? I do!

Suspenders?

For Christmas? I rather have a coffee, in the Café des Bretelles!
