Here we are, Sunday morning, the 20th April 2014. A beautiful day awake in this part of Alsace, France and the sun is piercing through the clouds.

We wish you all a HAPPY EASTER and as we say it in French: JOYEUSES PÂQUES !

For Christians, this is a day of celebration when Jesus Christ rose from the dead. He will be taken into heaven 40 days later, at Ascension Day.
