Liège in the 11th century

Back in September I posted some photos of a model of Liège in 1730. Here's another model, this time of Liège in the 11th century. It is on exhibit in the Archeoforum, the archeological site under the Place Saint Lambert. Evidently the city progressed quite a bit between the 11th and 18th centuries!

Happy ending

Well, the kitten story has a happy ending. They all found new homes! We placed an avert on chiens-chat.be and we were inundated by emails. Here's a couple of photos of the last kitten just before her new mom came to collect her.

Kitty update

The four kittens we found on Sunday are still staying with us. They're in much better shape and are growing amazingly fast. We're trying to find homes for them.

Cuteness overload

We found these four little bundles of joy abandoned in a cardboard box on the street. It's 4 degrees Celsius out there, we couldn't leave them. They're in our bathtub now, wrapped up in blankets and sleeping blissfully. Tomorrow we'll take them to the vet and then the refuge.

So the sun did rise today

Despite all the prophecies of doom for this 11/11/11, the sun rose normally. Enjoy more sunrises and sunsets on the Skywatch blog. At least until December 21 2012.
