Photo 6 of the infamous 112 picture midnight marathon in a snowy Grenoble
by Jack GrantAll of the previous photos (except the first, which had a few variations posted) have not been altered other than in size; however, this photo was converted to black and white. This is an alley between the 13th century church that was the subject of the second photo I posted in this series and the Cafe de la Table Rounde (I suspect no translation is needed), which has been in business since the 18th century, and I have been told it is the oldest continually operating cafe in France (I haven’t confirmed this local legend).
I think this photo should to be rotated slightly. The vertical line of the church wall on the right seems correct if I don’t look at it too hard, but the ground line seems enough off to make a distraction. Maybe I can correct it on the flight back to the US.
This alley is typical of the maze of narrow pedestrian streets in the center section of Grenoble.
As always, click on the image below for a larger photo in a pop-up window.
If all has gone to plan, today those who bought my appliances here are picking them up and I’m making whatever final repairs need to be performed to the apartment.
I have to turn in my rental car today, so I’ll be confined to the area near my hotel, but tomorrow, there is a brocante (kind of like a flea market that is set up on the streets) near the river. If I’ve finished with the apartment, I will go see if there are any interesting photos or anything small worth buying on my last day in France.
If I have Internet access, I might be able to post a photo or two before I leave for the United States at 5:00AM on Monday.

You have handled all this so extremely well.
A part of you must be sad to say goodbye to France.
I am very, very sorry for the circumstances which are prompting your return home.
God Bless and Godspeed, Jack.
Stay safe.
