POTD: Entry Hall of Schlösser Brühl

From 2022 07 07 Cologne and Brühl

Today's photo-of-the-day is from the Castle of Augustusburg in Brühl, Germany. The palace was built in 1725 and served as the residence of the prince-archbishops of Cologne. It reminded me of the posts on Facebook by people seeking to sell homes in Richardson. This entry hall would be a killer feature for those homes. ;-)

A Christmas Story Christmas (2022)

Rotten Tomatoes

A Christmas Story Christmas (2022): Grown-up Ralphie steps in to fill his old man's shoes at Christmas. A sequel to the 1983 classic that no one asked for. Lots of original cast members. It takes a long time for it to work its magic, but in the end, I was won over. C+

Ticket to Paradise (2022)

Rotten Tomatoes

Ticket to Paradise (2022): Divorced couple brought together and forced to play nice at daughter's wedding in Bali. Only the casting of Clooney and Roberts causes this movie to rise above a Hallmark channel movie. Tracy and Hepburn could pull this off in the 1940s. Not today. C+
