These pictures of homes with stubborn owners who don’t want to move, not even for a lot of money, somehow remind me of comic books like Asterix or Lucky Luke. Don’t know exactly why, but they do. More pics here.

Back from Frou Frou Frou Tralala Land
Hi there! After being sick for allmost a week, a nasty ear infection, and spending a long weekend in Paris, we’re back with new posts. Hope ya’ll missed us!
So, Paris it was. Been there quite a few times before, but just like NYC we can’t get enough of big city life. Just to stroll the avenues, to drink liters of vino and to eat more then you can get. But this time it was the first time we went into the catacombes. Quite an experience: a 1.6 kilmotres walk, 20 meters below Paris in narrow allyways with très très low ceilings. I became aware of the fact that I own a light form of claustrofobia… Anyway, I pushed through and made it to the thousands and thousands of neatly piled up skulls and bones of the obviously very dead people from the 17th century. They were moved there because the normal cemetaries were full, due to the enourmous amount of (some of them famous) people dying from the guillotine and not the least, the plague. It gave me (indeed Abel) une momènt existentièlle.
