Exuberant Christmas decorations give the mall a festive atmosphere. Large Christmas wreaths and strings of lights that often look great in combination with the architecture.
The overall looks of the shops are very nice, non of the shops are alike and they are all painted in nice colors with just enough decorations. As a whole it is like a village with beautiful houses.

Notice that the first floor isn't used at all, it's empty and nobody actually lives here. That's a lot of unused space just for decoration and presentation purposes but without the extra floor the houses would loose the required high to look nice and impressive. Afterall, this village is all about presentation and design...

Peyzac-le-Moustier: Roque Saint Christophe - History
La Roque Saint-Christophe (one of the 147 exceptional prehistoric UNESCO sites since 1979) is a large limestone rock with rock dwellings (abris sous-roche in French) along the river Vézère near Peyzac-le-Moustier in the Dordogne region. The cliff is one kilometer long and towers over the road below and the river Vézère at about a hundred meters. The rock has five terraces that were created on the one hand by the erosion of the river water 60 million years ago and on the other hand by the action of frost on the limestone during the ice ages of the Quaternary era.
The earliest dating is the Moustérien period, the caves, dating from the Middle Paleolithic era, were first inhabited as a shelter in the Neolithic period. There are traces that people already lived here 55,000 years ago and a skeleton of a Neanderthal of about 40,000 years old has been discovered. People also lived there in the Iron Age, remains such as tools and an engraving of a Madonna from the Gallo-Roman era from the first century AD. In 976 it became a fortress to protect against the Normans. During the Hundred Years' War (1337-1453) the fortress served as a fortress against the English. In the sixteenth century, the city and the fortress were occupied by the Protestant Huguenots. Finally in 1588, the Catholic French King Henry III ordered expulsion and the complete destruction of the structures and the fortifications.
Nowadays, reconstructions show what life must have been like in the fortress, such as the medieval construction site, forge, drum winch (a kind of winch), quarry, armory and a kitchen from the year 1000 of the fortress.

Puerto Dorado village overrun by pirates in search of treasure. The first sight is the town square, where some pirates have kidnapped the mayor, Carlos, and threaten to drown him in a well if he doesn't divulge the location of the treasure. Carlos' wife tells him to be brave and not talk; she is shot at as Carlos is repeatedly dunked in the water while several other captive city officials look on. Captain Jack Sparrow is seen hiding behind some dresses. An auction scene follows, where a pirate auctions off loot from the townspeople to other pirates. A redheaded female pirate is more interested in the town's rum supply, as are the bidders, who ignore the chickens that are currently offered for bidding.
In a next scene, pirates run around chasing women holding trays of food, and two foolish buccaneers who have stolen snacks are chased by an angry woman holding a rolling pin. Just beyond is the "Pooped Pirate" drunkenly waving a map and key to a treasure vault, boasting that Captain Jack Sparrow will never see it. Jack is hiding in a barrel just behind him, popping out and getting a good look at the map over the pirate's shoulder. Off to the side, a pirate by the name of "Old Bill" wants to share rum with a group of terrified alley cats.
Carefree, tipsy pirates succeed in ravaging the town and setting it aflame, filling the night air with an orange glow.

Pirates Of The Caribbean - open since april 12, 1992. A 10:30 minute long dark boatride through a fortress and harbour village with lots of animated pirate scenes.
Opening on March 18, 1967, the Disneyland version of Pirates of the Caribbean was the last attraction that Walt Disney himself participated in designing, debuting three months after his death. The ride gave rise to the song "Yo Ho (A Pirate's Life for Me)" written by George Bruns and Xavier Atencio. The song became the basis for the Pirates of the Caribbean film series, which debuted in 2003. Since 2006, Disney has incorporated characters from the film series into the various versions of the rides.

It really surprised the beach visitors, during a clear sunny day all of a sudden the beach was covered with a thick fog, in this case sea fret.
---
Haar is typically formed over the sea and is blown to the land by the wind. This commonly occurs when warmer moist air moves over the relatively cooler North Sea causing the moisture in the air to condense, forming hair.
Fog forms over the sea when cold air flows over relatively warm seawater or when warm air comes into contact with a cold sea. In spring and early summer, an extensive area of fog can arise when warm air from Southern Europe rises above the cold North Sea.

The building also contains La Galerie de la Belle au Bois Dormant, a gallery of displays which illustrate the story of Sleeping Beauty in tapestries, stained glass windows and figures.

Sarlat-la-Caneda - One of the most prominent villages in the Dordogne region is Sarlat-la-Canéda. A very popular destination in the Périgord Noir, maybe because modern history has largely passed it by. Sarlat has remained preserved and one of the towns most representative of 14th century France. The old centre consists of impeccably restored stone buildings, with 77 protected monuments it's on France's tentative list for future nomination as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Largely car-free with lots of narrow ancient streets and small stores, an absolute pleasure to walk through and to discover.
