My new view ..

The Fench Telethon ... Donate .. 3637

The Telethon, a French fund-raising event, belongs to everyone! It takes place the first week-end of December every year with the help of hundreds of thousands of volunteers, millions of participants and lots of artists. The Telethon is also a 30 hour TV show on a public chanel.

About AFM-Téléthon : 50 years of combat :
 The French Muscular Dystrophy Association (AFM-Téléthon) is composed of patients and their families who are affected by a genetic, rare and progressive illness that leads to heavy handicaps: neuromuscular diseases.

 I attended last night at the Telethon organized by banks. Running in a stadium in Paris. I don't really know how my bank will give to the Telethon for my 40 laps (16 km), but I had fun to run for this event. Great atmosphere last night in this stadium to the foot of the Eiffel Tower.

 

DONATE TELETHON

RIP Nelson Mandela ...

There are people who make your education.. They teach you certain values. And when they leave, you wonder how the world can continue to turn ...

Nelson Mandela is one of those people ... Thank you Mr Mandela for your lessons of humanity.. In this domain you were our best teacher .. We'll never forget you.. Never ..

Of course 

I know your wounds, your injuries,  Cyanide,

Venice Beach - Santa Monica

A beautiful sunny Sunday in LA today. I walked at Venice Beach and Santa Monica. 

At first a so good Cappuccino at Intelligentsia Venice Coffeebar, Abbot Kinney Boulevard... I like very much this street , with various shops ..

I really like this other coffeeshop and particularly its design with these FAILE sketches. 

 

 

This one especially touches me a lot. You know why ? ... No matter ...

Lost In A Dream .. FAILE

 And Venice Beach .. 

 

 

Santa Monica 

 

 

 

 Go to Katsuya tonight .. I hope it's possible ..

Running ... Parks ... Sunset : LA time

I ran this morning around Greystone Mansion. The park was closed to the public until tomorrow .. No luck ..

 Many hills ... hard footing.... But with a beautiful landscape !!

Roxy .. Great Memory for my favorite Rock band .. 15th february 2008

Then I wanted to have lunch at Katsuya because "J'adore les sushis" .. But Katsuya is closed for lunch on Saturdays and Sundays .. No luck .. :-)
No worries .. I'll eat tomorrow night Sunday for dinner ..

 I went closer to the Hollywood sign .. 

 Then a long time relaxing in the park Wattles Mansion, a paradise for dogs ..And I waited for the sunset .. I love my pictures of the sunset ...
