Život v Cizine (was La Vie Expatriée)
I'm finally satisfying a long-held dream of living abroad.
Having started in France, I've now moved on to the Czech Republic.

"Lumen de Lumine, Lumière née de la Lumière"
I went to this show at Notre Dame cathedral this evening.
Described as
Opéra d’images pour découvrir ou redécouvrir les "Mystères de la Nativité", sous-titré en anglais, projeté sur écran géant transparent, suspendu dans le Chœur de la Cathédrale, destiné aux petits et grands. Une heure d’un récit imagé, mêlant textes bibliques, narration, musique & projection de chefs-d’œuvre de l’Art chrétien.
(An opera of images to discover or rediscover the "Mysteries of the Nativity", subtitled in English, projected onto a giant transparent screen suspended in the choir of the Cathedral, designed for children and adults alike. A one hour illustrated story, mixing biblical texts, narration, music, and projection of masterpieces of Christian art.)
It was a very prettily done show, and wove its different pieces together quite nicely. The English subtitling, however, was distinctly amateurish.
