The Weekend

SAMEDI

Walked through the garden of the nearby hospital - once a church - and along streets, alleys and rivers.

Hiked a cliffside trail, explored ruins and fortifications. Ventured into the city's financial boulevards.

Had dinner at the city center, a drink of local liquor, paraded the blues and jazz festival under an umbrella.

DIMANCHE

The streets were empty and the shops were all closed; all day the Chilly Vanilly music festival kept the hostel lively, fed, noisy, and festive. All day, with a hand I walked around the city. Saw the casemates, orange pinstriped circular cutouts, ruins, the canals in a kayak, the cliffside perimeter, the gardens inbetween, beautiful buildings, faces, a public miniature train park, the rain.
