El castell de Haut-Koenigsbourg és el més famós de tot Alsacia, i un dels monuments més visitats de tot França. Realment és espectacular, tot i que en bona parta és una reconstrucció romàntica de finals del s. XIX, quan tot Alsacia formava part del Imperi Alemany. De fet, la seva reconstrucció fou demandada expressament per el kaiser Guillem II com a mostra de la germanitat d'Alsacia, i per tant, és tot un exercici de propaganda germànica. Ara en mans franceses. Un bon resum dels conflictes de fa 120 anys, especialment entre 1870 i 1945.
En tot cas el castell original data del s. XII i fou destruit el 1462.
===========================
The castle of Haut-Koenigsbourg is the most famous in all of Alsace, and one of the most visited monuments in all of France. It really is spectacular, although in large part it is a romantic reconstruction from the end of the s. XIX, when all of Alsace was part of the German Empire. In fact, its reconstruction was expressly demanded by Kaiser Wilhelm II as a show of the Germanness of Alsace, and therefore, it is an exercise in Germanic propaganda. Now in French hands. A good summary of the conflicts of 120 years ago, specially from 1870 to 1945.
Anyway the castle is really medieval in it's origins, built in the XII Century and burnt and abandoned in 1462.

Pictured are Apache attack helicopters operated by 3 Regiment Army Air Corps during Exercise Talon Gravis. The personnel to the left of the helicopters are REME Armourers waiting to re supply the attack helicopters.
Army aviators have demonstrated the range and power of the punch their Apache attack helicopters can deliver.
Exercise Talon Gravis has seen 3 Regiment Army Air Corps (3 Regt AAC) launch formations of up to eight Apaches from their base at Wattisham Flying Station in Suffolk to find and strike targets on land and at sea more than 300 miles away.
Flying against simulated enemy air defences, missions have ranged from a daylight attack on shipping in the English Channel off Plymouth to hunting armoured vehicles on Salisbury Plain under the cover of darkness.
The Apaches were replenished at a Forward Arming and Refuelling Point (FARP) - the military equivalent of a Formula 1 pit stop – set up at Keevil airfield on Salisbury Plain.
3 Regt AAC’s role is to provide an aviation deep manoeuvre battlegroup – made up of attack, reconnaissance and transport helicopters - to 3rd (UK) Division, the British Army’s high readiness warfighting division.

Walking through Old Town Fredericksburg, VA I couldn't help but look into every window we passed. In this BodyWorks Athletic Club window I noticed this lab enjoying him/her self! I had originally named this photo "Exercise Dog". Whatever it's called, I love this dog's yoga pose! 😍

I thought I heard something outside. When I went out, there was Miss Lily petaling away.
"I need" pant "to get rid of" pant "some extra" pant "weight" she gasped out.
I realize what I said above. Of course I meant pedal. But as it think about it, petal sort of fits Miss Lily.
