Fete des Lumieres/Festival of Lights, Saint Jean Cathedral, Lyon France 2009
Written by admin| 5 Comments »
This is the second video of the Festival of Lights in Lyon on December 6, 2009. The Fete des Lumieres occurs every year on the weekend of December 8th. This year, 2009, reflected the heaviness of the events of the past 12 months but was still amazing to watch and technically outstanding. This video is the second of a series and shows the building of Saint Jean Cathedral, where the light show is played. It represents the history of the Cathedral from when it was first started in the 12th century through the 300 years it took to complete. This is an amazing festival where ordinary buildings are transformed into extraordinary works of arts with the help of light designs projected onto the buildings. It’s truly like watching a movie but better (given the nature of movies these days). If you plan to attend, which I highly recommend, get your hotel reservations early and wear very good walking shoes. Expect to wait in line for the metro as well.

Cynthia I know I have the right blog address since you changed it http://www.american-in-france.com/ but my computer tells me when I open you blog : “done, but with errors on page”. What am I doing something wrong?

Sorry, you must think I have drunk too much Marc. I meant to write “I must be doing something wrong”.

Hi, Nadege, are you seeing the whole page even with the message? The first page has three Fete des Lumieres videos, one lemon tart video, and a relaunch post, plus a slide show at the top. If it’s all there, don’t worry about it. I get those messages on some blogs or websites I visit but everything is OK. This has been a much harder, more complicated process than I anticipated but hope, in the long run, it will be worth it. Please let me know if you have other problems. Thanks, Cynthia

I guess everything is fine. I can see the 3 videos from Lyon and the lemon tart too. My son and I are going to Kauai tomorrow for 10 days. I just cannot wait to be out of LA. Have a very merry Christmas and a happy, prosperous new year. Bonnes fetes de fin d’annee as they say.
