South of France: Port-Vendres in February
I do not know about you - but for a Norwegian having a walk in a coastal landscape like this with the sun shining and the temperature at app +15C - for sure gives a promise of spring and summer
- as at the same time at our mountain place up north the snow is 70 cm deep and the temperature well under the freezing point...

Winter night in the mountain cabin Norway
Photographing from the mountain house towards the small guesthouse/cabin right outside.
If you study the snow you will see that that there is not yet made a path to the little house (it was done the morning after this night).
The light inside the cabin is controlled from the main house - as it add some warmth in the setting. And over it all the moon passes and add some sparkling glitters in the snow....
This night the temperature dropped to -30C up here in the low mountains in Norway Southwest.

Video from a 4WD Jeep tour to the Atlas Mountains
When you are in Marrakech, Morocco the majestetic Atlas Mountains presents themself as a grand backstage to the flat terrain of the city itself.
We recommend that you spend a day with a local tour guide (i.e. Viator.com) in a big 4WD Jeep - not only to visit the mountains but also to have an exciting visit to a Berber village, including a visit to a local home.
Take a look at the video and have som impressions from this interesting day.

The Majorelle Garden
The Majorelle Garden (Arabic: حديقة ماجوريل) is a twelve-acre botanical garden and artist's landscape garden in Marrakech, Morocco. It was designed by the expatriate French artist Jacques Majorelle in the 1920s and 1930s, during the colonial period when Morocco was a protectorate of France.
The garden has been open to the public since 1947. Since 1980 the garden has been owned by Yves Saint-Laurent and Pierre Bergé.
After Yves Saint Laurent died in 2008 his ashes were scattered in the Majorelle Garden.

Tribute to Oscar Niemeyer

| The white wall of the Culture Center in Le Havre. architecht Oscar Niemeyer |
This famous architech from Brazil was also the one behind this cultural center in the French Town in Normandie, Le Havre.
The center so big and "captured" between other buildings that you need a really good wide angel to have it all in - but without, it is possible to just take a part of the big big building :-)))
Le Havre a town completely rebuild after WW2 where it was totally bombed. In fact there is a plaza in the city app. 1m lower than the landscape around just to display what was the soil level before the bombing of the town.
