Post 1000

The feline equivalent to internet spyware...lol

1000th post for this blog, many more on my other blogs. I'm fighting a blogger's block, it's getting hard. Henceforth, I will carry on posting, but less regularly. I started blogging in Dublin, in December 2006, and I need a break.
No worries, Dragonstar's b&w crew, you'll see me every Friday! You'll see me here, but not necessarily on this Strasbourg blog of mine.

A farmhouse

Looks very old... Very often the foundation date is engraved on the lintel, but I couldn't find anything here. My  (educated) guess would be 15th century, but it could be older. From a time when Bilbo was young.

Little Venice

Not in Italy, but here in Alsace!

Kehl am Rhein

Our tiny neighbor city, in Germany, just across the Europa bridge, just across the Rhine river, 15 minutes from Strasbourg city center. A part of Strasbourg, from 1939 till 1953
As many things are cheaper in Germany,, cigarettes, food, cosmetics, and as Strasbourg is 30 times bigger, there always more frenchies than Germans in town. It is pretty much a bilingual town, which is very good!

A Monday Mural

Seen a few weeks ago in Malta.

The way

As a former work zombie, I couldn't agree more... Destroy your work zombiness, and start again.

A weekend reflection

A reflection on the Opera Bastille, the newer of the two opera houses in Paris.

Weekend in black and white

May well be my favorite view of Paris: the rooftops.
More b&w to enjoy here

The tiny doorman

You're never too small!

This way out

Leaving the island of Gozo, a few weeks ago. Gosh, I so need holidays. Again.

Notre drame de Paris

Built in 1163, last rebuilt from 2019 onwards 

SOS

New from Dan23. On his Instagram account, Dan says it is about humans destroying the only planet we have.
More Monday Murals here, as usual.

Weekend reflection, with ducks

Last spring... Sorry, I mean last week! Winter is upon us once again.

Did you spot the other duck???

Things to do in Strasbourg

Go to the park, and enjoy spring!

Weekend in black and white

Inside the Memorial to the murdered Jews of Europe, aka Denkmal fuer die ermordeten Juden Europas, in Berlin last winter. Aka the holocaust memorial. More about the place here.

Hidden

Somewhere in the Petite France area, in the old town, there is this hidden courtyard, with a strange tree. Not sure what it is about.

Love

Love can truly be found in the strangest places

White on blue

A little color on this grey and rainy day.

Under construction

A brand new gigantic mural, here in Strasbourg, in the Esplanade area. Painted over the dull front of a student home. A close up, to appreciate the size of it:
