Reflections
AT ebb time I wrote a few lines upon the shore..and gave them all my heart and all my soul..at tide time I returned to read what I had inscribed and found my ignorance upon the shore.."jubran khalil"

:: Le Carnaval de Jabal Lwebdeh

 
 
It might be a bit late to post about it, since it was on the 10th of March, but it was a nice event. After weeks of preparation, the French Center was able to spread joy all over the Jabal, starting from the Paris Circle, next to the center , going up to the National Museum with a parade of people in Masks, then down again to the circle for Crepes provided by the Librairie de Paris Coffee shop. The kids were entertained with ballons and face painting provided by KIDZMANIA, sugar candy, popcorn, and loads of paint and cardboard shapes to color. Hopefully this will become an annual event, and will help revive Jabal Lwebdeh.I know I wrote about this earlier HERE, but I love that place. If you are like me, and miss Webdeh, go have dinner at Canvas, get a book and go reading in the National Museum Park, grab a few pastries from Automat and eat them on the roundabaout,buy an apple pie from Motta, or even better, take a french course and spend an hour everyday there!
 
Here are some pictures of the event:
