Happy New Year



The name of this metro station is nearly appropriate for the day; the only thing it's missing is the word Année to help us wish you all a happy, healthy, prosperous, safe, loving 2010.

I grabbed this shot from a moving train, through a dirty window, so please forgive the quality.  It's a station in the 9th arrondissement and the name is the French equivalent of the old English word "gospel", which means "good news". 

I love the sign because of the wavy letters.  For some reason they haven't been applied evenly and so this wish for a Bonne Nouvelle Année takes into account the fact that not all will go smoothly in our lives in the upcoming year, but that we all hope for good news.

Happy 2010!
