Hello dear friends
again this week I'm in France.
The wonderful architecture
is a feast for my soul.
Being a New Zealander
and coming from a country with
a young history
I'm in awe of the beauty
of these medieval buildings.

ReplyDeleteI LOVE LOVE LOVE your travel photos....I've incorporated many travel photos in the past from when I lived in Italy recently...I went to Paris, but didn't, sadly, get to some of the smaller towns, which I know would be my favorite, so I am IN LOVE with your photos/trip.

Beautiful photos of grey! Some days I'm envious of your regular trips to France, but then I think how lucky I am to have my granddaughters living in the same town as I do. Life has plusses and minuses everywhere, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteSo glad you share the beauty with us.
Hi Shane, I am very much enjoying "armchair travelling" through your beautiful photos - thanks so much for sharing. What beautiful memories for you. Happy Sunday to you, hugs, Julie x0x
ReplyDeleteJ'adore these amazing photos of these wonderful old buildings Shane - next best thing to actually being there.
ReplyDeleteJust think you may have to really thank your daughter for allowing such wonderful opportunities.
I know I would feel at home in these buildings so very much!
Sending hugs and love,
Suzy
I love visiting French medieval towns and villages - and there are so many of them remaining that I don't think we'd ever run out! Perhaps we need to get a bunch of gals together and go see them all, LOL!
ReplyDeleteLovely 'grey' pics - you just know I'm swooning!
Hugs - Mary X
Beautiful, beautiful photos of lovely France, Shane. The delicious grey textures remind me of your gorgeous handmade books! xx

ReplyDeleteis a feast for my soul too... excellent shots...
How beautiful ! It is almost like a time capsule : those medieval houses are so stunning...
ReplyDeleteFirst I want to thank you for your sweet words on my blog. Isn't France a beautiful country. I love your photo,s of those beautiful little French villages , those old doors and windows, all so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice week.
I have been to many places in Europe but not France, it is on my bucket list of places to see. Beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteHello Shane. I've just left England after two months and miss my home there and miss Europe in general. Your lovely photos remind me of my European roots and my home there. I think I'll just hang out here for a while and look at your photos. :)
ReplyDeleteThere must be a little of the Francophile in every blogger! Your photos are lovely and make me wish to visit again soon.
ReplyDeleteSo, so beautiful, with such eye appeal...I live in a wee tiny historical town and yet I really find nothing much here to photograph...rather mundane. What you are seeing and sharing, is very worthy of the share~
ReplyDeleteYour images of those villages are just so lovely, Shane. How lucky you were to visit there! Thank you so much for sharing them here.
