Guest - Apr 22, 2007 04:03 PM EDT Thanks Beverly, Vicki (again!!) and Marsha for your magic comments. I'm so glad you like all my French scenes - they mean a lot to me, but it's good to know others enjoy them too!
Guest - Apr 22, 2007 03:43 PM EDT I am really enjoying your photos of France. Thanks so much for sharing. Very lovely series of photos.
Guest - Apr 20, 2007 11:17 PM EDT Aha! I was a wee bit thrown off as the huge doors to the left in the flower shop photo appeared more definitive than here - but the arch fit. I noticed the wonderful wall mural was also close by to the left of this entry gate. Vicki
Guest - Apr 20, 2007 10:10 PM EDT Would just love to be able to stroll through the archway and beyond and see all that wonderful architecture. Nice job.
Guest - Apr 20, 2007 02:37 AM EDT Many thanks, Carol, Vicki and Mary for your generous comments. Vicki, you're absolutely right - the flower shop is peeking through the archway! Some of the roads are still cobbled, but most are now normal tarmac.
Guest - Apr 19, 2007 11:45 PM EDT A charming street scene. I do enjoy seeing the different architecture Steve.
Guest - Apr 19, 2007 08:45 PM EDT Is the quaint flower shop through there to the right, Steve? It's a wonderful image - does the town still have it's old stone roads? Vicki
