The news yesterday hit home for me. Two people, maybe three now today, have died after a shooting at the Christmas Market in Strasbourg France.
when we were in Strasbourg this August, we walked through the area where the Christmas Market is held.
Strasbourg is a beautiful city. Another senseless terrorist attack.
Here are some photos of a more peaceful city last August.
I don't want to live in a cave but some days I don't even watch to watch the national news or listen to it on the car radio. It looks like such a beautiful place and, of course, due to that a perfect spot for a terrorist to strike. Where's my cave!!!
ReplyDeleteLike Robbie, I want to live life to the fullest (or as full as I can manage) but this is the kind of incident that seizes my heart in fear and I want a cave of my own. I try to remember that humanity survived world terror before our time. And pray.
ReplyDeleteI've been to the Christmas Markets twice in Strasburg and on the news in the background I could see a vendor that I purchased from. So sad to hear that this has happened there. It is such a fun experience at Christmas time.
ReplyDeleteIndeed such a beautiful city. Another case of a nut job with a gun. It is all so senseless.
ReplyDeleteI have blog friends that have posted about going to that Christmas market. It's hard to hear the news of terrorism around the world. I refuse to cut myself off from the news. I hate what I see and hear but I don't want to become ignorant about it.
