Metz, ma ville...

I arrived in Metz today.  Before getting into my misadventures of getting settled, I thought I'd share some views of my new 'home' for the next nine months... 


L'esplanade, one of many green places to enjoy in Metz


Le Graouilly, the legendary dragon that terrorized Metz in the Middle Ages until vanquished by Saint Clement. This sculpture appears on rue Taison.


Saint Etienne, the cathedral of Metz


A closer view of Saint Etienne


Stained glass windows in Saint Etienne by Marc Chagall


Interior of Saint Etienne


The Moselle River, overflowing with Swans, overlooking le Temple Neuf, a Protestant church.
