If we have been a little quiet it’s because we have been en vacances!
We had a fabulous time in the Pyrenees Orientales. I will write a more detailed post about what we got up to in this week’s Five Frugal Things round up.
In the meantime, a few nice pics…most of them taken by Mr S who is our official photographer!
Here he is on Argeles beach.

Moules frites – mussels and chips to you and me. My favourite.
I decided I needed a new chapeau!
The beautiful port at Argeles Sur Mer. Below that is Collioure, a stunning little place.
Mr S looking moody.
The prettiest doorway we ever saw in the old part of Argeles Sur Mer. I would love to be so artistic.
Collioure again. It reminded us of Cornwall.

The photos above were taken at the cathedral at Elne – a small example but with extremely lovely cloisters and great views of the surrounding Pyrenees.
I love France but hadn’t been for years. I am already planning our next trip. Anyway, more later! A bientot…

What is that blue stuff at the top of all your pictures??? 😀
You certainly picked the right week for it! Even the ducks are fed up with the rain now!!
