With the arrival of spring, David and I have taken the opportunity to get out and about around Metz. In the past two weeks, we've taken drives and walks during weekday afternoons. David has written about the excursions that we've taken (and I urge you to read his posts), so I'll add some rather random photographs from the week.
Last Tuesday, there was a general strike in France. We're werent' affected, but people taking trains throughout France were. We happened to be near the train station when we saw strikers gathering for a protest.
I especially like the mounted police officers uniforms. They were there to keep the peace.
Although the EMT personnel were working, they wrote "En Greve" on their ambulances in solidarity with the transport workers. We saw them helping an older woman who had fallen on the street.
