Vive le Vent (Weekend Street/Reflections # 203)

 Dijon, France

There was only a slight breeze when I took this picture, but it reminded me of something that happened a long time ago. On a very windy day when I was 4 or 5 years old my mother took me to see Santa Claus at Fashion Island (a local shopping mall). Afterward, as we walked to the car, a gust of wind knocked a huge Christmas ball off the side of a building and it started rolling quickly toward us. We were holding hands but I broke free and ran and hid behind a parked car. My mother wasn't so lucky. I watched as the ball chased her through the parking lot. She was very upset but thankfully uninjured. Strangely it didn't scare me at the time and afterward I thought it was funny. It took my mother a lot more time to find the humor in it. 😄

Mobilier & Objet (Weekend Street/Reflections # 197)

 Dijon, France

I rarely post reflections anymore. So here's a building reflected in another. I didn't go inside the glass building, but I think it's a furniture and home goods store.

A rare sighting of someone reading something that's not on a smartphone or computer.😉
