Icons Of Cherokee Street

On Cherokee Street 5

Seen on the walls and windows of Cherokee Street during the parade and festival. The portrait of Nelson Mandela is new since I last stopped by, possibly put up after his death. So beaming, so charming for a man who faced such harsh challenges.

The second image is harder to understand. It's the window of a home. What's the relation between the word Jesus and the elegantly dressed boy?  Is it a heartbreaking memorial or just two things important to the homeowner? We'll never know.

  2. I like your movies around Madeleine and the dogs. Great dogs to keep so calm with her. I agree with you about the remark about japanese and european coffee. You are absolutely right.

  8. I'm not too keen on dogs licking babies but I'm sure it's good for their immune system and I have to say dogs make fantastic playing buddies. Madeleine is obviously having such a great time!
