Lille blooming in the late summer.

It was the first day of Fall Break and the Sun came out to play. So forget this crazy mixed-up French keyboard and pay attention to the smiles on so many faces, the cute little dogs happy to be in town, and the brightly colored facades of bustling Lille. Was it the fine weather which made the folks walking in the city look so chic and upbeat? The oldest and finest chocolate shop in the city had moved its hand made ice cream operation out onto the sidewalk. There were many happy holders of waffle cones filled with various colored creams to be noticed spreading out in all directions.
