Bonjour from France

12th June 2019 by shoestringjane@outlook.com 3 Comments

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…
