Lyon - trompe l'oeil


Lyon is the capital of trompe l'oeil. You see this wonderful art form all over the city. Here are some examples.






Those are rental bikes parked at the bottom of the building.

Fahrenheit 451

Yes, we did read this awhile back in our Book Club. This entry reminds me of that book because I went to a bookstore today and am also posting a photo of a fire hydrant. I don't, however, condone book burning!


I love the Elliott Bay Book Company: so full of nooks and crannies to get lost amongst the books! It's always hard to go at lunch when I don't have time to browse but am picking up a particular book. I did find one of my book club books for this month. Hint: it's a girl's book about puberty by Judy Blume. I have read this book before when I was a pre-teen, but it will be interesting to read it again as an adult! Apparently there is a boy's book as well, but I had no luck finding that one.



Better late than never? I missed getting this in in time for last week's Two Things Challenge, but wanted to post my hydrant photo anyways.
