Various - Holiday Acquisitions
Up bright and early...
A big smiley face as we left the hotel, to trundle...
...through Borough Market...
..and onto the Tube from London Bridge back to King's Cross...
...and into St Pancras...
...to board the Eurostar for Lille...
A very comfortable enjoyable journey, during which your hosts enjoyed a wee bit shut eye...
90 minutes to Lille, followed by a 30 minute trundle to our apartment...
Out to the nearby boulangerie for lunch...
Then, into town...
The main square...
...where Mr Beelzebub was posing for pics...
Spookily, my own turned out to be the six hundred and sixty sixth taken with the new camera...
Through the old Bourse...
..and past the Opera House...
..and an impressive clock tower...
..before stopping off at Le Monde Moderne for some refreshment...
Some exploring - two years already since the CBQ single called this...
Old buildings...
...with art viewed through the windows...
More ornamental squares...
...to the cathedral...
...and its nearby tower...
..and peaceful gardens...
Back to the main square...
..and past the Musee des Beaux Arts, which is on our agenda for an upcoming rainy Friday...
Right now though, the weather was sunny and hot...
Noted that faves Michael Rother and DAF will,soon play here...
Back to the apartment...
...having bought in some tasty Belgian beer...
After some well earned rest, back out looking for somewhere nice for dinner...
..and found it...
We will try to emulate my ham, strawberry and rocket salad on our return to Crispycat Towers...
An end of evening constitutional...
...along past the Sebastopol Theatre...
Sack hit late...
Highlight of the day : Lille...
