Christmas colour

Did you get something colourful to wear to brighten up the post Christmas blues?

There is plenty of snow here in France with many warnings on the weather forecast, but in Brittany, or Bretagne it has been wonderful sunshine but very cold wind.

Christmas is a great time for a walk, here is a shot that I took Christmas morning. The sun was so bright shining onto these beech leaves that have not fallen.

The French weather forecast Meteo.

Many coloured is bariolé.

Dazzle is éblouissment.

Back later with some more colour, I must go and put some logs on the wood burner.

Fete de les Fleurs

Sunday 24th August, the weather didnt look promising. People are out in the streets dressing trees and window frames and stringing up paper flower decorations and so I remove lots of passion flowers and dress up the metal railings. Some nice people bring me some paper flowers to add to the decoration. The village only has the fete every 10 years so its sad that all their efforts are soaked in the pouring rain.
