Another souvenir from my years at sea.
Here we are in the center of the City. This Café was my base. When I was not working on board, I used to walk from the Roche-Maurice dock up to here. I was then enjoying a nice blonde ( a beer... )and a croque-monsieur.

From that point I was starting my trekking in town choosing a different direction every day.

The Port of Nantes – Saint Nazaire serves both the Nantes / Saint Nazaire urban area, which with its 800 000 inhabitants is one of Europe’s major cities, and Greater Western France, within which Nantes is an important logistical hub.

As I am writing these lines at Torino Olympic Games, on Men's Giant Slalom , the Crazy Canucks are going very well. François Bourque is leading after the first run!

Check it out!

Hi Robert,
Hard to imagine that this was taken almost 30 years ago. Superb composition and your frame accentuates the period. Great photo.

Hi Rob,
I agree with linus, a 30yr old photo and it looks great! Vivid colours & sharp and details. I posted one that is 12years old and I had to re-define the word "Image Enhancement"!
Anyway, lovely POV & notes.

Constantinos

looks almost the same (idea) as my for last posting
Nice Robert ! How are you 2?????
