Faster!

Riding naked on a big snail... Selfie? Could have been, but no... Could not find a big enough snail.

More b&w here, as usual.

Baeckeoffe!

(Not so) Typical alsatian stoneware. Just what you need for a good baeckeoffe! Vegans, vegetarians: don't click on the link! A baeckeoffe, well done, is just divine

Rue du chaudron

Cauldron street, near the cathedral. Called "novus vicus apud praedicatorum juxta domum liberorum quondam Philippi apothecari" in 1330 AD, "a new street with preachers near the house of the children of the the late Philip's storeroom".... Long name, but I suppose it was a good indication to the place, a kind of medieval GPS...

No parking!

What was a parking in front of the Temple Neuf a few days ago, is being transformed into a meeting area, with grassy hills, benches... Part of the city council's effort to bring nature in town.

Weekend in black and white

Well, I am not a churchgoer. Except to admire the art and architecture. And to take photos, bien sur! This was yesterday, in the Freiburg cathedral, southern Germany. The young girls were part of a French school trip. France is just a few kilometers away, and so is Switzerland.
 Wanna see more nice b&w? Click here, dudes and dudettes!

Fun at the Bächle

Daytrip to Freiburg im Breisgau, in the German Black Forest, 2 hours away. The Bächle , south-german word for a small brook or river, runs through the old town since 1220 AD, and is apparently  a font for infinite fun for youngsters.

Abbattiamo le frontiere

Let's break down borders. I totally agree with this mural in Genova, Italy, as I consider myself as a world citizen. 

More Monday Murals right... here.

Luzzu

A luzzu is a traditional maltese fishing boat. They always have eyes. This might refer to the eye of Horus in ancient Egypt.

Many more b&w photos here.

Le pote aux roses

Wordplay... To discover the pot of roses (pot aux roses), means accidently finding out the truth, in French. Pot, same word in French and English. But pote means friend, chum, mate. Therefore, he his the friend with roses. Voila.
