Weekend in black and white

Should you be wondering, this is not some nasty virus: it is part of a lamp, from back in the 60es or 70es.

More b&w here, as usual

                                                                  And more reflections here

Not my style...

Every December, there is ca kind of... challenge: who will wear the ugliest Christmas sweater... Not my thing, as I prefer nice clothes. Would you wear this thing above?

A Swiss Monday Mural

Well, last week I went to see my dealer in Switzerland... My drugs: chocolate and cheese! And as always: looking for murals. Like this one. And btw, yesterday's cheese fondue was pure bliss!

More Monday Murals needed? It's here.

Minster

A better view of the Basel minster. Founded in 1019 AD, it is 4 years younger then the Strasbourg cathedral. Excuse my chauvinism... 😂

Jean Tinguely's fountain

A nice day out in Basle/Bale/Basel/Basilea, the city with any names in Switzerland/Suisse/Svizzera/Schweiz/Schwyz. Correct me if I forgot something... lol. 

Anyway, there is this very nice and artistic fountain next to the Minster.

And I thought the moon was bigger...

It was called "the museum of the moon', central piece of an art exhibition last June in Strasbourg. A 7 meters inflatable moon inside our cathedral, based on NASA photos... Well, why not; after all.

February CDP theme day: power

No black tower (it's actually blue), although... The theme for February is: power. This is the European Central Bank. Need I say more?

More power(full.) post about power here.

Well, don't.

Well, what can I say... Try not to fall in the river while showing your love to someone by putting yet another padlock... Or by putting yet another sticker on the buoy...

I want to ride my... broken bicycle

A new type of vending machine, selling all stuff needed to repair your bike. Useful!

El cancrejo

Not many murals in Strasbourg, so, old Barcelona photo once again. El cancrejo = the crab.

 As usual, more murals here, every Monday.

I NEED HOLIDAYS!!!!!

Well, I haven't gone anywhere for over 6 months... Which is really bad for a compulsive traveler like me. But... Good news this morning: the Israeli border reopened to tourists. Haven't been there for absolute ages. Culture, food, warmth, beaches, mountains, desert... That's what I need. Maybe in March...

Black and white weekend in paradise

It was on a hot summer day in Venice (aka: the place where I belong... I wish!). Good place for a cool drink: Ristorante Paradiso, near the Biennale Gardens. Want some more b&w? Click here, now!

Salute! Cheers!

Burger, anyone?

No arches on this (in)famous burger joint in the city center! If you really need a good burger, I'd rather advice the place opposite, 4 or 5 guys serve much better food there!
