... trying Higher ...



... this bilingual (FR-EN) blog for storing miscellaneous elements including a few copies of articles or book excerpts (that I found particularly interesting or inspiring or reflecting my own feelings...), old and new (some family) photos, and of course my notes, thoughts, own writing, and links to family blogs ... one could say "a personal scrapbook". I found writing diaries or journals or blogs (now for nearly 10 years) can be really therapeutic besides a feeling of connection. NOTERS WELCOME.

climate changes in France ?

At about the same time as earthquake in Chile (previous entry), in France whole regions have been unexpectedly and violently flooded by a storm that became a hurricane they called "Xynthia",
destroying completely dozens of houses and water invading some houses roof high, drowning people in their beds and in their sleep !
... several dozens of deaths...


South of France has not been touched ... this time, but we have a noticeable change of type of climate during the last winter months,
much more rain, cold, mists, and even snow, than usual.

Very scary and quite horrific. Apparently Cape Town coastal towns like Camps Bay, Kommetjie to name a few, will also experience the rising of sea level due to climate changes.
