Bastille Day


Allons enfants de la patri-i-e! The Liegois love the French and they celebrate the 14th of July (Bastille Day) with fireworks. They were launched from the Heliport and flew over the river. Here's a few of them.

Madonna and child


A religious subject for today: one of the countless madonna shrines in the city. This one is from the Impasse des Ursulines. Ave Maria.

Save council housing


A couple of 'Save council housing' posters, an italian flag, stamps and various other stickers make this window interesting. The Rue Pierreuse is in the reflection.

Village Gaulois


The spire of the cathedral viewed from inside the Village Gaulois. It's not Gaulish and it's not a village but there's plenty of food and drink in it. It's a temporary food and drink market in the Place Saint Paul and it will be here until July 14, Bastille Day.
