A 360° bird's-eye view of Marseille!

Those of you who saw my name easily guessed where I'm from (France, even though my family name is not French) but as you can't hear you can't guess from which city I'm. Indeed, just like you can easily recognize a person from Beijing (兒兒兒), Texas or New York (which is not far from from Beijing tone actually) you just need to hear me few second to know that I'm from Marseille..."It's damn' obvious" I have been told.

Yes Marseille, the sunny (300+ sunny days per year) southern French city, biggest mediterranean harbour, the door (ok, the gate) to Africa, home of the French Connection and the OM football team. It's a city I don't stop to criticize (dirty, dangerous, not convenient) but while remaining the only French city that I'm willing to live in.

About that, the official website propose since a few days a stunning (especially in full screen mode) 360° bird's-eye view of Marseille! Strongly suggest you to take a look at it, if you click on "Map" you will find different point of view (with my High School beside the Train station)

Haha! Oui le centre ville est un peu spé mais bon, j'y ai passé toute ma vie (Lycée + Fac) donc bon...

Les plus chanceux sont ceux qui sont à la Fac de Luminy avec les callanques sur le campus !!

bon ça ne vaut pas Le Creusot mais c'est quand même magnifique ! c'est quoi cette armée de dirigeables ?

Hahaha je me suis posé la même question et j'en suis venu à 2 conclusions :

- C'est en fait le même dirigeable prit à plusieurs moment de la journée
- C'est juste un link pour changer de point de vue

Je crois que la 2ieme option est la bonne
