A few years ago someone posted a link to a video of huge marionettes walking down European streets. It was the most amazing new/old thing I'd ever seen, and I found that there is a huge range of wonder and fantasy emenating from Nantes, France. It was a ship-building city, and many of the buildings and warehouses have been resurrected with creative endeavors.
One of these is "Les Machines de l'Ile de Nantes". Here are a few photos. I'll let them speak for themselves - you can read the history and details here: www.lesmachines-nantes.fr
