MGF makes a friend in France. 🙂 Camera: Canon Digital Ixus.

Wandering through the Saverne countryside in France, in Red MGF, testing new cameras. Did a bit of trainspotting too as the TGV passed through town. Cameras Olympus C2500L and Canon Digital Ixus.

Having already sampled quite a lot of the local beer, we thought we really ought to swing by Saverne’s local brewery for a few snaps. Unfortunately it was quite dark by the time we got there. And closed. But the floodlighting is quite good. Camera: Canon Digital Ixus.

Today we drove down to one of my favourite places, Le Corbusier´s strangely beautiful Ronchamp Chapel “Notre Dame du Haut”, France. Camera: Olympus C2500L

From a distance, perched high up on a hill, Dabo looks like an illustration form a children’s book of fairy tales. We spotted the place from 10 kilometres away a few days ago. So today, out of curiosity we drove the MFG up there to take a look, and to take a few snaps too….

Thought we’d cross the border today and visit Basel, in Switzerland. Left the MGF at the gite and took the train instead. I was accompanied by former New Millennium features editor Sarah Keen and her very knowledgeable aunt Jeanne. Camera: Canon Digital Ixus.

Ran into some quite heavy rain today, as I drove around the Saverne countryside in the little red MGF, accompanied by former New Millennium features editor, Sarah Keen. Camers: Canon Digital Ixus.
