Bouillon

This evening I'm into miniature painting... It has been a while so I hope I still have the skills to do it.

In the meanwhile, I was looking at the pictures taken at Bouillon a few weeks ago under sunny weather conditions. Saved for a rainy day, I'm happy to share a little morale booster. Some were taken during the medieval weekend, others during an occasional visit last summer.

Rodemack: a source of inspiration

Something I've been dreaming of ever since watching Luc Besson's movie "Joan of Arc" is to follow the trace of the enigmatic heroine through France, starting in Domrémy, her birthplace in Lorraine. Due to a busy schedule we had to satisfy ourselves with a small trip to the Land of the Three Frontiers. Pleasantly surprised we discovered the inspirational Medieval village of Rodemack, nicknamed "Petite Carcassonne Lorraine", surrounded by 700 meters of ramparts from the 15C.
