“Defenseless”

I really don't like having to go to work in the La Défense district near Paris. It's a human anthill where people are mostly in a hurry to get from the train to the office and back again.

The only reason why a visit to this district might be of any interest is for architectural photography, with the many towers covered in glass reflecting each other.

34 ans avant les Jeux Olympiques, en 1990, Paris était déjà une fête ! Jean Michel Jarre, déjà, avait donné un méga concert à La Défense, devant quelques 2,5 MILLIONS de personnes !

Voici l’un des derniers morceaux joués, bien entraînant, qu’il ne m’aurait pas déplu de réentendre cet été, Calypso, issu de son album « En attendant Cousteau ».

“Layered symmetry”

These glass panels are located beneath the Grande Arche de La Défense, Paris, France.

The Grande Arche was designed by Danish architect Johan Otto von Spreckelsen, and built in the late 1980s.

These panels help to limit the impact of the strong winds circulating through the corridor created by the many towers of this business district.

This year, for the holidays, we are maxing out on #ChristmasMarkets. It started this weekend, as we checked out #ChristkindlmarketChicago. This was the first of what we figure will be at least five Christmas markets and could be as many as eight.

Depending on how flight/arrival times shake out, there's an off chance we'll hit the #Tivoli Christmas Market in #Copenhagen during our layover, but we will definitely see the one at the #TuileriesGarden in #Paris. Then #LaDefense, if time allows.

Then we'll see the market in #UniriiSquare in #ClujNapoca, #Romania.

Then to #Budapest, #Hungary to see one or both of the markets at #VorosmartySquare and #StStephensBasilica.

Then we will see the market at #WenceslasSquare in #Prague, #Czechia. That one is likely to be the last.

What can I say? We really like sausages and mulled wine.
