Le Havre (UK /ləˈhɑːvrə/;French pronunciation: [lə ɑvʁ]) is an urban French commune and city in the Seine-Maritime department in the Normandy region of north-western France. It is situated on the right bank of the estuary of the river Seine on the Channel south-west of the Pays de Caux.
Modern Le Havre remains deeply influenced by its employment and maritime traditions. Its port is the second largest in France, after that of Marseille, for total traffic, and the largest French container port. The name Le Havre means "the harbour" or "the port". Its inhabitants are known as Havrais or Havraises.
Administratively the commune is located in the Upper Normandy region and, with Dieppe, is one of the two sub-prefectures of the Seine-Maritime department. Le Havre is the capital of the canton and since 1974 has been the see of the diocese of Le Havre.
Le Havre is the most populous commune of Upper Normandy, although the total population of the greater Le Havre conurbation is smaller than that of Rouen. It is also the second largest subprefecture in France (after Reims).

A film festival is an organized, extended presentation of films in one or more cinemas or screening venues, usually in a single city or region. Increasingly, film festivals show some films outdoors. Films may be of recent date and, depending upon the festival's focus, can include international and domestic releases. Some festivals focus on a specific film-maker or genre (e.g., film noir) or subject matter (e.g., horror film festivals). A number of film festivals specialise in short films of a defined maximum length. Film festivals are typically annual events. Some film historians do not consider Film Festivals as official releases of film, like Jerry Beck. The best known film festivals are the Venice Film Festival, the Cannes Film Festival, the Toronto Film Festival, Sundance Film Festival, and the Berlin International Film Festival, the latter being the largest film festival worldwide, based on attendance. The Venice Film Festival is the oldest major festival. The Melbourne International Film Festival is the largest film festival in the Southern Hemisphere and one of the oldest in the world. A 2013 study found 3,000 active films festivals worldwide—active defined as having held an event in the previous 24 months.

Today I was able to port in Le Havre, France. I walked around aimlessly, like usual. I was able to find a bit of internet and call home - that was pretty cool. This is a neat little town/city.

Le Havre was heavily damaged by bombing at the end of the 2nd World War. 5000 people were killed, 12,500 buildings destroyed. The architect's office Auguste Perret planned the reconstruction. According to their plans, the Church of St. Joseph, which resembles a lighthouse was built. At the Bassin du Commerce in the city center, Oscar Niemeyer built a cultural center that due to its shape is called Le Volcan. Not far away, in the north, you find the city hall with a 72 m high tower and in front of it Europe's largest city hall square. In 2005, the entire city center was listed as UNESCO World Heritage Site. The remains of the old Fort de Tourneville, built around 1860, today houses the city archives and a number of cultural facilities. Outstanding is the Tetris project with a concert hall...

Le Havre, premier port français pour le commerce extérieur, doit aussi sa renommée à son architecture imaginée par un homme : Auguste Perret. Avant-gardiste, il dessine le visage de la ville moderne d'après-guerre et utilise un matériau qui va devenir sa marque de fabrique : le béton. Sous son impulsion, des quartiers d'habitations entiers sortent de terre mais pas seulement… Infos pratiques : Le Havre Tourisme Adresse : 186 Boulevard Clemenceau, 76600 Le Havre Téléphone :02 32 74 04 04 http://www.lehavretourisme.com/

A slap to the face when you don't get your way
You tell me all about your situation Please keep to
Yourself
I don't want to hear you but you keep on telling me
I'm sick of you
Don't worry about me
You think about yourself so much
You always think it's all about you, Don't worry about me
You think about yourself, so much.
Do you like what you have?
Now I'm taking it back
I wonder if you even know what you say
You bore me with your selfish conversation
Please keep to yourself
No one wants to hear you but you keep on telling me
I'm sick of you
Don't worry about me
You think about yourself so much
You always think it's all about you, Don't worry about me
You think about yourself, so much.
Do you like what you have?
I'm gonna take it away
If you come back down
Will you listen to me?
When you come back down
