This is a boat loader erected in 1922 in Lessines (Belgium) and used until 1984 when it was permanently shut down. It was used to load porphyry in ships. The porphyry crushes, transported by railcars from the Lessines quarry sites using a private railway, reached the structure on a conveyor belt and were taken to silos for sorting. They were then dumped directly into the holds of the barges, moored to the side of the building.
The 8 silos had a capacity of 35 tonnes each. Their size made it possible to prepare crushed mixtures of several dimensions. This system made it possible to load eight boats per day, where it had previously taken eight men and no less than seven hours to fill, with the wheelbarrow, a single barge of 280 tons.
Many large, bulky and light loads can be carried by bicycle - if you can figure out how to fasten them.
Full marks to this chap.

I thought this was kind of interesting. It's different from my usual subjects but captures something you don't see every day.
Went with a super simple double page layout that maximizes the number of photos I can get on the page. My hungry girls inhaling Mac and cheese after skiing lessons.

From Wikipedia -
Ganga Talao (Hindi: गङ तलओ; also known as Grand Bassin) is a crater lake situated in a secluded mountain area in the district of Savanne, deep in the heart of Mauritius. It is about 1800 feet above sea level. The first group of pilgrims who went to Ganga Talao were from the village of Triolet and it was led by Pandit Giri Gossayne from Terre Rouge in 1898.
It is considered the most sacred Hindu place in Mauritius.
There is a temple dedicated to Lord Shiva and other Gods including Lord Hanuman, Goddess Lakshmi, and others along the Grand Bassin. During Shivaratri, many pilgrims in Mauritius walk bare feet from their homes to the lake.
I feel like I am running out of steam this week! It was my 13 and 11 yr old boys that made me do one tonight - they said I was too close to give up!! LOL.
Haven't done a LO with a black background for a long time - feels strange.

A truck has been reversed off the road up against a large stack of logs. Duckboards have been laid down so that the truck can safely negotiate the terrain. The truck is labelled 39426 and has 'load exceed 3 tons' written up the side. It also has a more informal name daubed across the front. Two soldiers are lifting the logs from the pile while a third secures them on to the truck. Two soldiers stand at the front of the truck chatting to each other. The stack of rough-hewn trunks in the background towers over the scene.
Sawmills were often set up close to the front line so that the timber could be made into lumber ready for use. This meant that the supply of wood would be steady and sufficient. It was also more efficient this way as all the resources were close together and then the finished product could be transported to where was necessary.
