Hello Friends!

Not much to say today except that we are safe.
The storm have killed two people in France and here two have been injured. The train traffic was stopped and the firemen have been called 700 times in our department.
As you can see on the two pictures this is the weather we had in the countryside close to us people took pictures and put them on facebook.
Today the temperature is much cooler, but back to heat tomorrow.
I have chosen some of my pictures of Giverny I love the nymphéa pound from Monet’s garden, hope you enjoy the pictures!

Giverny and children painting exhibition .

Hello Friends !


After the very windy week, it is back to normal and last week I heard on our local radio that this weekend was the re opening of Giverny ´si painting museum.

We left early as we had one hour drive any arrived to the opening of the museum. I did not know it was free on the re opening day. The subject was children and I was very interested by these paintings, SO beautiful !

I think paintings with flowers match well together.

Then we decided to visit Monet’s garden as we always do two or three times a year. It did not rain and the garden was awakening, tulips starting to bloom…but it was very pleasant to visit the garden and to meet people from all over the world. After covid foreign visitors are back, many Americans, South Americans , Europeans  and lots of people from Paris, but very few from our département.

Then we had our lunch outside ( by 7 degrees C) but we enjoyed our meal. After our meal we went on Monet’s tombstone which is very close to his house.

I did some shopping ( I will show you my finds on Monday’s post)

We had a very nice day and I have enjoyed the view of beauty.



I love this beautiful painting























































 Hope you enjoy the visit!
