sundial at Mont Sainte-Odile, Alsace

This postcard comes from the ever constant Dominique, who writes in English this time! I always thought he didn’t speak much English, but I must have misinterpreted that from our early correspondence. It’s a beautiful sundial here—and a new vocabulary word for me in French! I can’t say that I ever had the need to learn how to say “sundial” before, but know you know: un cadran solaire. This postcard depicts the famous Mont Sainte-Odile, a peak in Alsace, France with an abbey there (also known as the Hohenburg Abbey) founded in 690! What a beautiful place; I hope to visit it on my next trip to France!
