I got to go to Anchorage last week. The best thing about Anchorage are the views of mountains all around. So my view is dominated by the hotel's other towers, but there are still mountains:
Even some alpenglow on them:
One day I got out to see the statue of Captain Cook:
Then there's the view of the frozen Cook Inlet:
So nice to get out into the sunlight!
On the way home we got a view of Denali, also known as Mt McKinley, the tallest mountain in North America:
I almost lost my hat in the airplane, but the nice man behind us found it. Yay!

Noël à Lille
J'ai passé Noël dans le berceau de ma famille : La capitale des Flandres (Lille) dans le département du Nord en France.
C'est une ville merveilleuse à cette époque de l'année et quelle ambiance de fête : grande roue illuminée, chants de Noël, marrons chauds, arpenter les pavés, lever le nez...
Voici un petit aperçu : les photos en haut et en bas au centre ont été prises en Belgique (Bruges et Ypres - une sacrée ambiance, aussi !!).
I spent Christmas in the birthplace of my family: The capital of Flanders (Lille) in the department of Nord in France. This is a wonderful city this time of year and what a party atmosphere: illuminated Big Wheel, Christmas carols, roasted chestnuts, pounding the pavement, look up ... Here's a glimpse: the photos above and below the center has been taken in Belgium (Bruges and Ypres - a sacred atmosphere, also!).
