I’ve been having a few IT problems over the last couple of days but everything should be fine now.
J’ai eu quelques problème informatiques ces derniers jours mais normalement tout est rentré dans l’ordre.

In the city of Blois there is not much traffic in the Main Street in winter at 4 pm on a weekday! For other takes on the same theme across the globe, click here.
A Blois il n’y a pas beaucoup de circulation au centre ville en hiver à 16h en semaine ! Pour d’autres interprétations du même thème – scènes de rues – cliquez ici.
What the French call mimosa is a type of wattle indigenous to southeastern Australia that has been widely introduced in the Mediterranean. It certainly brightens up winter.
Le mimosa est peut-être le symbole de la Côte d’Azur il est originaire du sud-est d’Australie. Ses belles fleurs jaune réchauffe bien l’hiver.
In our little wood way too early!
Dans notre petit bois vraiment trop tôt.
I saw this train for the first time in Blois this week. Maybe it’s replacing the usual horse and cart in winter. Time will tell.
J’ai vu ce train à Blois cette semaine pour la première fois. Peut-être qu’il remplace l’attelage habituel pendant l’hiver. On verra bien ….

So irrésistible
That, surprisingly, is the name of the sculpture by Touraine artist Laurence Dréano recently purchased by Blois Royal Castle. By placing the couple in equilibrium against each other, the artist wanted to symbolise the strength that comes from people providing each other with support, solidarity and love. It’s in the grounds of the castle in the area overlooking the Loire River near Foix Tower.
C’est le nom surprenant de cette sculpture de l’artiste tourangelle Laurence Dréano dont le château royal de Blois a récemment fait acquisition. En équilibre l’un contre l’autre, l’artiste a voulu symboliser la force qui émane quand les hommes se soutiennent, la solidarité et l’amour. Elle se trouve dans les jardins de la terrasse du Foix.
