UniLang France Meeting 2004

Saaropean and his girl-friend are still waiting for other participants, while leppie has already spotted them.

The piece of paper andis is holding in her hand shows the UniLang logo and greetings in many languages.

Avataar and Lyle joined us, bab is taking the photo, and we are waiting for P. Pat, covered under the roof at the entrance to the cathedral, because it is raining.

This is leppie a.k.a. Giorgio.

jta (Julien) and Lyle (Lionel) sitting at a café. See that UniLang t-shirt? :-)

This is avataarbg (Pavel).

andis (Andrea) and her boy-friend Saaropean (Rolf). And another UniLang t-shirt. :-)

Gina and her husband bab (Thomas). His UniLang t-shirt shows one of monkeywrench's paintings.

This is jta (Julien).

The confused waiter (who was happy when some of us spoke French) serving our drinks. Oh, and I'm on the picture, too. ;-)

This is P. Pat. (Annett). She arrived a little later.

P. Pat joining the group and getting comfortable.

This is P. Pat (Annett).

From left to right: andis, Saaropean, avataar, jta, Gina, leppie.

As you can see, it didn't rain all the time. This picture was taken on a bridge over the Ill river.

Another shot of some of the members walking.

From left to right: Annett, Gina, Lionel, Giorgio, Julien, Pavel, Rolf, Andrea. Thomas is taking the picture.

The flags you can see there are those of Alsace and the EU. In front of them (not visible on the picture), there were France and Germany. And the flags of the other 23 EU countries over the rest of the street.

Saaropean, P. Pat and jta wondering walking through a small street near the big temple.

This is Gina, member of another community...

Background: The waitress that wanted to memorizes what 9 people had ordered. She didn't quite manage it, though. Foreground: Lyle reading a Chinese-German dictionary and Leppie eating salad.

Lyle was checking the word 盘旋楼梯 (panxuan louti), which means "spiral staircase".

Our first "flammkuchen" is finally arriving. jta is pointing to bab, trying to draw him.

Gina and avataarbg

P. Pat and Lyle in the flamm restaurant.

This person is responsible for most of the pictures on this page.

Flammkuchen is a speciality from Alsace; a kind of pizza covered only with onions and bacon. And crème fraîche instead of tomato sauce.

That's my girl-friend and me. :-)

Note the special artistic effect of "shivering glasses" on that picture. It's not a coincidence, we actually voted before deciding who will be shot in that artistic way. :-P

That's us outside the restaurant. From right to left: Lyle, P. Pat, jta, avataarbg, bab, leppie, Saaropean, andis, Gina.

Inside that big temple in downtown Strasbourg.

Some people directly or indirectly sitting on or standing behind a bench at the bank of the Ill river. You should know who's who by now, this is picture 34. :-P

Walking around town again. The spotlights are used to illuminate the cathedral at night.

Leaving Strasbourg in bab's car. Saaropean and andis took a train to Sarrebruck two hours later, leppie stayed another night in Straßburg. No, wait a moment... This picture has been taken on the other side of the Rhine (i.e., in Germany). Probably near the train station where jta and avataar were thrown out...

Lyle: No, I was there =P Avatar was "thrown" at another train station. Poor Bab and Gina, it took them more than an hour to send me to Black Forest.
