Tsk tsk.
In an attempt to give
mon blog a little
kick-start,
I've decided to take a page from the book
of a fun new blogger I've recently discovered,
Kayla at
Exquisite Banana.
{
With a name like that, you know her blog has got to rock, n'est-ce pas?}
Early each week, Kayla features
"Scenes from the Weekend",
where she posts photos from her Saturday/Sunday wanderings.
Since we usually get up to fun things around here on
le week-end
{& because I almost always have my camera handy},
I thought I'd do the same.
This past weekend seems like a good place to start.
My parents-in-law were in town visiting,
the weather was fairly cooperative
& there was a lot going on in Annecy.
On y va ?
A quick trip to the market on Saturday morning =
lettuce, radishes, cheese for
raclette that night, organic
bananes...
& tulips!
Saturday afternoon, we drove to Geneva.
{It's only 30 minutes from Annecy by car!}
That yellow thingy shows the border between France & Switzerland.
It was a bit gusty & rainy in Geneva,
so we wandered around & looked in all the fancy shops.
I like this photo because it looks like a still from a movie
{don't you think?}
Men playing chess in the park in Geneva.
Me & a teeny tiny Fiat {love!} in Geneva.
Sunday morning meant a wander down by the lake in Annecy.
Can you see the people out rowing?
In the shopping bag?
Oranges to make fresh-squeezed OJ to have with brunch.
Delicious Sunday brunch at home.
Our after-brunch stroll took us past a protest against nuclear power.
The sign says "no action today, radioactive tomorrow".
These lovely ladies were part of the Venetian carnival
taking placce in Annecy this weekend.
{Don't worry... more photos of that soon!}
Et voilà !
I've decided to limit myself to ten photos per weekend,
which is probably a good thing, given my snap-happy tendencies.
Speaking of, I still have loads of photos of my Back in B.C. visit
last month that I'd like to post.
I'll be back tomorrow with another
