A very quick post this morning, to show this French-speaking peacock strutting his attributes ;)

This was yesterday at Beauval Zoo, a zoo definitely worth a visit. There’ll be more about that zoo when I get back home.

In case you can’t click on the link above, try going directly to the page on Blip.tv. It worked for Kenju.

I thought you might enjoy a quick peek at the Eiffel Tower

I shot this with my Panasonic FZ5 camera, with the zoom on. I should have commented while I was filming, but it didn’t occur to me. So all you have is the street noise. I haven’t figured out how to dub a short clip yet. So there you are!

Visiting Musee du Quai Branly

Also called Musée des Arts Premiers, a brand new museum, which opened in June 2006. All the artefacts are beautifully displayed, but I would have enjoyed a little more pedagogy, as I am a total ignoramus when it comes to ethnography, which explains why I would be at a loss to comment what I saw. I enjoyed it as a show or as an art exhibition, though.

Alternately, you can download the file here Your browser must have Adobe flashplayer

  1. The music is the intro to Eagles’ Hotel California, which can be downloaded here
  2. I wrote about the museum here in French
  3. The last two slides, were taken when I got out of the Museum
  4. Set of Musée du Quai Branly photos here

I enjoyed Gail at gailatlarge’s videoclip Steelworks so much that I thought of putting together some of my numerous manhole covers to make a slideshow out of them.

  1. J.C. Pennetier plays Robert Schumann’s Fantasie Op.17, Scènes D’enfants Op 15 und Phantasiestuecke Op 111, unfortunately out of print at the moment.

  2. My photos of manhole covers on flickr are here.
