a week to go
Christmas is here
... there, and everywhere. Last weekend I was a few hundred miles southeast of Paris, rather overwhelmed by the massive waves of tourists, nevertheless all impressed with shops and streets decorated up for Christmas, with the distinct mixture of French and German cultures. It might not exactly have been cold enough for mulled wine, but definitely festive enough to tell me of the arrival of upcoming holidays.
Now my schedule for the coming days is hectic but I am quietly happy to find myself back here - not Tokyo, but another big city where I have yet another bunch of people that matter so much to me. Still on my travels, but I feel at home.

Oh what glorious photos! Is this in Alsace by any chance? I was there a few years ago in early December and fell 100% in love.

Gorgeous pictures as always... I think it's cold enough eventually to have mulled wine!! (-6° in the morning in the South West, I guess it's even colder in Paris!!). Joyeux Noel!!
What fantastic photos! I'm heading there in a week on vacation and I'm so excited :)

oh, I loved Strasbourg! This reminds me of last Christmas - my husband and I wandering through the streets marvelling at their Christmas decorations and enjoying the hot drinks! Sigh, thanks for the memories.
