Imagine No. 1 : Lennon Wall : Prague, CZ

Not too far from the Charles Bridge is what is known as the Lennon Wall. Named for the late John Lennon of The Beatles fame, the wall is covered in graffiti, poetry, love notes, and wishes for peace and freedom. These are just a few pictures.

Marseille Confidential

Marseille Confidential : Marseille, FR

As mentioned yesterday, this past weekend featured a trip to France's second-largest city, Marseille. Located on the Côte d'Azur, this city and its surrounding metropolitan area is also France's oldest city. Marseille was founded in 600 B.C. by the Greeks as a trading port.

Jesus as Graffiti : Marseille, FR

Just a few photos from our first evening in town. Nothing too exciting or iconic in today's pictures. We arrived late in the afternoon and spent the early evening exploring the neighborhood around our hotel and eating meat-laden couscous at a fabulous Tunisian restaurant--La Kahena--near the waterfront.

Couscous at La Kahena, Marseille's most respected Tunisian restaurant : 

Buried under all of that meat are vegetables and couscous. The broth and soup in the bowls 

above were well-seasoned and added an additional layer of flavor to the entire mix. Yummy! :

Come In and Freak Out

Come in and freak out : Basel, CH

Basel has some interesting murals spread throughout the Altstadt paying homage to music and its legends. This one was just around the corner from La Fonda, which featured in yesterday's blog post. As you're finishing up your holiday shopping and planning do not freak out. It's just not worth it.
