Describe what you love about France in 3 words. Can we make it 5 words? Eyes, ears, nose, tastebuds + brain. Paris stimulates all my senses constantly. I’m inspired all the time – endlessly surprised and amused. New York doesn’t do it for me anymore…

ReplyDeleteThe green dress and all the greenery♥
Love your pastries..always.
I can see why you didn't paint landscapes -- who would have time! This is pretty darned magnificent!
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy your tours, the gardens looked beautiful. Designed to be appreciated from the windows! Like a living tapestry
ReplyDeleteExactly TWSP. You got it.
DeleteAfterall one must protect one's dewy complexion from the sun.
Great shots of the topiary, and I agree one must taste the delicious patisseries
ReplyDeleteThanks for the mention, loads more Loire stuff to come, back in Paris in September hope to meet up then.
ReplyDeleteI always thought that topiary was invented to do a practise run on the ladies' ridiculous hair-dos at the time. Fancy that room with the view. Planning to finally get there in August - looks stunning! Thanks for the tour, Carol.
ReplyDeleteI loved Villandry when we were there as their gardens are the most spectacular I've ever seen. Dumb me, I never thought to check out the local pastries. Next time.
ReplyDeleteAmazingly beautiful post showing an amazing place!
ReplyDeleteThat garden is incredible....the interiors certainly aren't shabby, but that garden is a wonder!
Beautiful summer photos!
Yes, it's the grounds that are enthralling.
Deletean A-Mazing experience!!
I should not have missed the Maze though...
The floral arrangements are breath taking...the grounds are beautiful....
ReplyDeleteIan's ink drawings are also magnificent!
ReplyDeleteThe amazing thing for me is that it's practically empty! A place so famous is usually overrun with tourists.
